This document discusses methods for determining the age of objects, including radioactive dating using carbon-14. Radioactive elements like carbon-14 decay at a steady rate, allowing scientists to calculate an object's age by comparing the amounts of stable and unstable atoms. Specifically, carbon dating works because carbon-14 is absorbed by plants and animals while alive but then decreases after death, following the radioactive half-life. By measuring carbon-14 and carbon-12 levels, the time since a plant or animal died can be estimated.

Heat and temperature
Heat is energy transferred between objects due to a temperature difference, while temperature measures the average kinetic energy of molecules within an object. Thermal energy is the total energy of all molecules within an object. While an iceberg has more total thermal energy than a cup of coffee due to its greater number of molecules, the coffee molecules have higher individual kinetic energies, resulting in a higher temperature. Pans of different volumes receiving the same heat input will result in a higher temperature increase for the smaller pan due its fewer molecules. Iron will also reach a higher temperature than water when both receive the same heat input, due to iron's molecular structure transferring heat more readily.

1) Photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide, water, and light energy from the sun to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water. Glucose is then converted and stored as starch in chloroplasts.
2) The rate of photosynthesis is affected by limiting factors like light intensity, carbon dioxide levels, and temperature. Increasing a limiting factor increases the rate until another factor becomes limiting.
3) Plants use glucose for respiration, growth, reproduction and storage. Starch is the main storage product because it is insoluble and does not affect the plant's water balance like glucose would.

Heating And Cooling L2
The document describes an experiment to demonstrate the conduction of heat through metal. In the experiment, drawing pins are attached to a metal rod using Vaseline. When the rod is heated with a Bunsen burner, the heat conducted through the metal causes the Vaseline to melt and the pins to fall off. The document explains that heat flows through metals by the movement of electrons, which bump into each other to transfer the heat. Liquids and gases are poor conductors as they do not have freely moving particles to transfer kinetic energy like metals do.

Trend Report July 2011: Facebook, Brands & TV in Germany
Whereas in the spring of 2010 only about a quarter of the top-100 TV advertisers were identified as having an official (German-language) Facebook presence, just one year later it was evident that the world's largest social network had attracted a far greater proportion of those companies. Working with the same selection method, in April 2011 we identified that half (75) of the companies and brands serving as our basis had official fan pages, of which almost half (30) were less than a year old. This was based on the top 150 TV advertising spenders in the first quarter of the year.
Key issues for the second Trend Report:
- Review and improvement of the benchmarks identified in 2010:
- Re-evaluation of the different strategic patterns in the use of Facebook as a communication channel.
- Review of the following hypotheses:
1. Fan pages for brands and companies show declining interaction rates in 2011.
2. The typology of communication strategies displays a shift towards dialogue-oriented forms.
3. The differences in the interaction rates are industry- and size-specific.
4. Brands communicate their Facebook presence more frequently in other communications channels such as TV commercials and corporate web sites than was the case a year ago.

It asks students to define key terms like density and volume and explain physical and chemical changes. It also reviews the four states of matter, how temperature relates to molecular movement, differences between solid structures, and how gases differ from plasma.
Chapter 3 notes 1
There are four main states of matter: solids, liquids, gases, and plasma. Solids have a definite shape and volume, with particles vibrating in a fixed position. Liquids have a definite volume but indefinite shape, as particles slide past one another. Gases have indefinite shapes and volumes, as particles move rapidly away from each other. Plasma is the hottest state and consists of ionized gas particles that are electrically charged.
3 2 changes_of_state
This document discusses different changes of state that substances can undergo as energy is added or removed. It defines key terms like melting, freezing, vaporization, evaporation, condensation, and sublimation. Melting and freezing occur at the same temperature and involve a substance changing between solid and liquid states. Vaporization and boiling involve a substance changing from liquid to gas, while evaporation is a surface phenomenon. Condensation is the reverse process of a gas changing to a liquid. Sublimation describes changing directly from solid to gas.
New book ch 1, sect 1
Physical science is the study of matter and energy. It has two main branches - chemistry, which looks at the structure and properties of matter and how substances change through chemical reactions, and physics, which studies different forms of energy and concepts like motion, force, and gravity. Both matter and energy are fundamental to physical science - matter is what everything is made of, while energy is the ability for matter to do work and is present in all objects and substances.
Chapter 1 section 3 models
Scientific models are representations that use something familiar to help explain something unfamiliar. They can be used to represent objects too small or large to directly observe and help explain the past, present, and future. Models can illustrate things like atoms or the space shuttle.
Telescopes & astronomy andie
There are many ways to view the universe beyond just visible light. Telescopes collect different wavelengths of light and energy, from optical to infrared, radio, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays. Each type of telescope reveals different information and allows us to study different phenomena in the universe. The best locations for telescopes are high mountain tops for optical and infrared telescopes, and satellites in orbit for telescopes studying wavelengths blocked by Earth's atmosphere like x-rays and gamma rays. Advanced telescopes have allowed scientists to discover more about star and galaxy formation, black holes, and the early universe.
Major features of the universe andie
The document summarizes key facts about the Milky Way galaxy and the universe:
1) A constellation is a group of stars that appear close together but are not actually physically close. Constellations help people navigate the night sky.
2) A light year is the distance light travels in one year, around 6 trillion miles. The closest star to our solar system, Proxima Centauri, is about 4 light years away.
3) A galaxy is a large group of stars bound together by gravity. Our Milky Way galaxy is a spiral galaxy estimated to contain 200 billion stars.

It then lists the name of the chapter and sections with associated facts. Sections are denoted by letters and sub-sections by numbers or letters. Headings are in red and sub-headings are in blue, with facts provided for each level. This structure is repeated as needed throughout the chapter.
Solar System Model
The document provides instructional steps for a lesson on the solar system. Students will research the planets and sun online and in books. They will take notes and create a model or poster showing the organization of the solar system. Students will present their projects and be assessed using a rubric focusing on inclusion of planets, order, size, color, and facts about each planet. The goal is for students to understand how the solar system is organized and limitations of models in representing it.
Comets And Asteroids Comparison Graphic Organizer
The document compares and contrasts comets and asteroids. It notes that comets are made of ice and dust while asteroids are made of rocks and metals. Comets form tails when passing through the inner solar system, while asteroids do not form tails. Comets typically have more elliptical and tilted orbits than asteroids and planets, and originate from the Kuiper Belt or Oort Cloud, while asteroids typically remain in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Short Notes Chapter 20 The Solar System Andie
This document provides an overview of the history of astronomy and the current understanding of the solar system. It describes how models have progressed from Ptolemy's geocentric view to the acceptance of Copernicus' heliocentric model supported by Galileo's observations of phases of Venus and moons orbiting Jupiter. Newton later explained gravity and inertia as the forces that cause objects to remain in orbit. The document outlines the definition of planets and characteristics of the inner and outer planets, as well as how the solar system formed from a nebula 4.6 billion years ago. Minor objects like comets, asteroids, and meteoroids are also briefly described.
History Of Astronomy Andie
The document discusses the history of astronomy from ancient Greek astronomers to Isaac Newton. It describes how Ptolemy first proposed the geocentric model which was believed for over 1500 years. Copernicus later proposed the heliocentric model which placed the Sun at the center. Kepler took Tycho Brahe's data and developed his laws of planetary motion, showing their orbits were elliptical not circular. Galileo made important astronomical observations with his telescope that supported the heliocentric model, such as the phases of Venus and moons orbiting Jupiter. Finally, Newton explained gravity and inertia as what kept the planets in orbit around the Sun.

Students will learn about the causes of day and night, seasons, phases of the moon, and solar and lunar eclipses as it relates to the Earth-moon system. When studying the solar system, students will examine how scientists' work has expanded understanding and the formation and characteristics of planets, comets, asteroids, and meteoroids. Finally, students will learn how astronomers study the universe using various tools and about constellations, galaxies, the Milky Way, and the big bang theory. CRCT testing will take place from April 19th to
Solar eclipse[1]
This document discusses key things to observe during a solar eclipse including sunspots, first and second contact when the moon begins blocking the sun, Bailey's beads when the moon's mountains are visible, the diamond ring effect when the moon completely covers the sun, the crimson chromosphere, solar corona, and prominences which are large structures in the sun's atmosphere, as well as third and fourth contact marking the end of the eclipse.
Moon phases[1]
The moon appears to change shapes throughout the month as it orbits Earth. During a new moon, the side facing Earth is not illuminated so the moon is not visible. A full moon occurs when the entire side facing Earth is illuminated, appearing as a bright circle in the night sky. The waxing and waning crescent moons occur in between the new and full phases as the illuminated portion grows larger or smaller each night.
Earth moon system andie
The document summarizes various topics relating to Earth's rotation, revolution, seasons, phases of the moon, eclipses, and tides. It includes animations and diagrams explaining how Earth's tilt and yearly orbit around the sun cause seasons. It also describes the lunar phases and how the moon's position relative to Earth and sun causes phases to change daily. Eclipses of both the sun and moon are explained. Finally, it discusses tides and how the gravitational pull of the sun and moon influence high and low tides each day.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.
Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.
