In this lesson you will learn about:
Density of a solid for a regular shaped body. Definition, meaning and its simple calculation
This online resource discusses the distribution of earth's water.
There are many different processes and phenomena that emit electromagnetic radiation. Humans have taken advantage of many of these processes to develop technologies that use electromagnetic radiation.
This YouTube video will guide you through a fun activity where you will draw the earth's continents and oceans.
The beauty of a coral reef, the warm radiance of sunshine, the sting of sunburn, the X-ray revealing a broken bone, even microwave popcorn—all are brought to us by electromagnetic waves. The list of the various types of electromagnetic waves, ranging from radio transmission waves to nuclear gamma-ray (γ-ray) emissions, is interesting in itself.
Even more intriguing is that all of these different phenomena are manifestations of the same thing—electromagnetic waves (see Figure 15.1). What are electromagnetic waves? How are they created, and how do they travel? How can we understand their widely varying properties? What is the relationship between electric and magnetic effects? These and other questions will be explored.
Photoelectric materials emit electrons when they absorb light of a high-enough frequency.
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.
