The idea of the electric field, how it's useful, and explains how the electric field is defined.
This YouTube video will guide you through a fun activity where you will draw the earth's continents and oceans.
Forces at a distance are explained by fields (gravitational, electric, and magnetic) permeating space that can transfer energy through space. Magnets or electric currents cause magnetic fields; electric charges or changing magnetic fields cause electric fields.
Magnetism is an interaction that allows certain kinds of objects, which are called ‘magnetic’ objects, to exert forces on each other without physically touching. A magnetic object is surrounded by a magnetic ‘field’ that gets weaker as one moves further away from the object. A second object can feel a magnetic force from the first object because it feels the magnetic field of the first object. The further away the objects are the weaker the magnetic force will be.
Food webs are models that demonstrate how matter and energy is transferred between producers, consumers, and decomposers as the three groups interact within an ecosystem. Transfers of matter into and out of the physical environment occur at every level. Decomposers recycle nutrients from dead plant or animal matter back to the soil in terrestrial environments or to the water in aquatic environments. The atoms that make up the organisms in an ecosystem are cycled repeatedly between the living and nonliving parts of the ecosystem.
This online resource discusses the importance of the ocean, the layers and composition of the ocean and how it moderates climates.
This online resource investigates the features and topology of the ocean floor, the effects of wave erosion and the landforms created by coastal depositions.
We can analyse the arrows in a food web to identify producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and decomposers.
