P P T # 4 Earth
The document discusses the Earth's grid system of lines of longitude and latitude that are used to locate positions on the globe. It defines key terms like the prime meridian at 0° longitude which runs through Greenwich, England. Meridians run from the North to South Pole and are lines of longitude. The equator is at 0° latitude and divides the globe into northern and southern hemispheres. It describes how longitude is measured in degrees east and west of the prime meridian, and how latitude is measured in degrees from the equator to the poles. It also discusses the International Date Line and how time zones are used to standardize time zones based on longitude.
Latitude & Longitude
Latitude lines run horizontally around the Earth and are parallel lines of equal distance. Longitude lines run vertically and converge at the poles. Together, latitude and longitude can precisely locate any position on Earth within the grid system of degrees, minutes, and seconds.

7th Grade Scientific method notes
The scientific method is a process for gathering and evaluating information through observation and experimentation. It involves making an observation, asking a question, researching background information, developing a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis through experimentation, analyzing data collected, and reporting conclusions. The key steps are to identify variables, form a testable hypothesis, design an experiment to test the hypothesis by manipulating variables and collecting data, then analyzing results to evaluate if they support the original hypothesis.
Class6 Earth Rotation And Revolution
The document discusses the two motions of the Earth: rotation and revolution. It notes that rotation is the Earth spinning on its axis once every 24 hours, which causes day and night. Revolution is the Earth orbiting the Sun in an elliptical orbit, taking 365 days to complete one revolution and causing the seasons due to changes in distance from the Sun throughout the year. The rotation of the Earth occurs at approximately 15 degrees per hour and spins at over 1600 km/hr at the equator.
Other members of solar system
Asteroids occupy the large gap between Mars and Jupiter. Comets are small bodies that orbit the sun in elongated orbits and have tails. Halley's Comet appears every 76 years. Meteors are small objects that burn up when entering Earth's atmosphere, appearing as shooting stars. Meteor showers occur when Earth passes through comet debris. Some large meteors survive entry and are called meteorites. Satellites are natural or artificial objects that orbit Earth or other planets. Artificial satellites have practical applications like weather forecasting and telecommunications.

Together, lines of latitude and longitude can be used to precisely identify any location on Earth.
Latitude and longitude
The document discusses latitude and longitude and how they are used to locate places on Earth. Latitude lines run horizontally and measure degrees north and south of the equator, which is 0 degrees. Longitude lines run vertically and measure degrees east and west of the Prime Meridian, which is 0 degrees. By combining a place's latitude and longitude coordinates, its exact location can be pinpointed on a world map or globe. The document provides the Philippines' approximate latitude and longitude as between 10 to 20 degrees north and between 120 to 130 degrees east.
Earths motions 2016_website
1. Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours, causing day and night. It also revolves around the sun once every 365.25 days in an elliptical orbit.
2. Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees, which causes seasons. It is closest to the sun in January and farthest in July.
3. In addition to rotating and revolving, Earth's axis undergoes a very slow wobble over 26,000 years called precession.
Seasons and eclipses
The document discusses the causes of seasons and eclipses. It explains that the seasons are caused by four main factors: the tilt of the Earth's axis, which results in one hemisphere receiving more direct sunlight; the Earth's revolution around the sun, which affects the exposure of each hemisphere to solar energy; the direct rays of sunlight, with more direct exposure resulting in warmer weather; and the length of daylight, with longer days exposing an area to more solar energy. Eclipses occur when the sun, moon, and Earth are perfectly aligned, allowing either the moon to block the sun during a solar eclipse or the Earth to block the moon during a lunar eclipse. Eclipses can be either total within the umbra shadow or
Chap 3 locating places
1. The document discusses latitude and longitude lines on Earth and how they are used to locate places. It provides details on the prime meridian, equator, tropics, polar circles and how to write latitude and longitude coordinates.
2. Methods for determining distances between locations and solving problems involving latitude, longitude, time zones and universal time are presented.
3. Information is given on sidereal and solar days, time zone conversions, and examples of solving problems involving time differences around the world.
Common atmospheric phenomena
1. The document discusses land and sea breezes, which occur due to differences in how quickly land and water heat up and cool down over the course of a day.
2. It also explains how monsoons are wind systems affected by proximity to large bodies of land and water. During certain seasons, differences in temperature and pressure cause seasonal winds called monsoons to develop.
3. Specifically, it describes the northeast and southwest monsoons that affect the Philippines, bringing cooler weather from December to February and rain from July to September, respectively.
The movements of the Earth
The Earth moves in two ways: by rotating on its axis daily, and by revolving around the Sun yearly. The Earth's tilted axis and oval-shaped orbit cause the seasons by changing the angle and duration of sunlight received in different parts of the world throughout the year. The rotation of the Earth causes day and night, and the revolution around the Sun in 365 days causes the four seasons as the Earth's positioning shifts solstices and equinoxes.
Planet Saturn
Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun and named after the Roman god of agriculture. It is a gas giant with 18 known moons, the largest being Titan which is bigger than Mercury. Saturn's iconic rings are made of ice particles and span over 270,000 km wide, though they are only about 30 meters thick. The rings are composed of three main sections divided by darker gaps. Saturn orbits the sun every 29.5 years and spins rapidly on its axis, completing a day every 10 hours.
Common atmospheric phenomena
The document discusses several common atmospheric phenomena including sea breezes, land breezes, monsoons, and the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). It explains that land heats up faster than water and cools down faster, leading to sea breezes during the day and land breezes at night. Monsoons are seasonal winds that blow from the northeast as the Northeast Monsoon from October to March and from the southwest as the Southwest Monsoon from July to September. The ITCZ is a zone where winds converge near the equator, causing rising air and thunderstorms during parts of the year.
Third Grading Module 1 Describing Motion
The document discusses key concepts related to motion including position, distance, speed, and acceleration. It defines position as the location of an object relative to a reference point and can be described using direction and distance. Distance refers to the total path traveled, while displacement is the straight-line distance between initial and final positions. Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, while velocity includes both speed and direction. Acceleration refers to changes in an object's speed or direction over time.
Moon Phases
The Moon orbits Earth and reflects sunlight, which causes its phases to appear to change over the course of a lunar month as the illuminated portion changes from new to full and back to new. The Moon's gravitational pull, combined with the Sun's, causes two high and two low ocean tides each day. The greatest difference between high and low tides occurs during full Moons and new Moons, when their combined gravitational pulls reinforce each other.

Understanding Typhoons
A typhoon is an intense circulating weather system over tropical seas and oceans characterized by very strong winds and heavy rain. Typhoons are categorized into five categories based on wind speed, ranging from a tropical depression with winds under 120 km/h to a violent typhoon with winds over 249 km/h. During a typhoon, people should take precautions like locking windows, clearing drains, listening to weather forecasts, taping windows, and bringing flower pots indoors.
Rotation and revolution powerpoint
This presentation discusses the effects of rotation and revolution on Earth. Rotation is the movement of Earth on its axis, causing day and night as well as high and low tides. Revolution is Earth's orbit around the sun, which causes the four seasons due to the tilt of Earth's axis. Revolution also results in varying lengths of days and nights throughout the year and changes in the altitude of the midday sun.
Seasons phases eclipses and tides
- Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours, causing day and night. It revolves around the sun once every year (its orbit).
- The tilt of the Earth on its axis causes the seasons. Summer occurs when the location is tilted toward the sun, and winter occurs when it is tilted away.
- The moon orbits the Earth, causing phases like the waxing and waning crescent, gibbous, full and quarter moons. Eclipses occur when the moon passes between the Earth and sun (solar eclipse) or Earth passes between moon and sun (lunar eclipse).

Lab four isolines and contour lines
Isolines, also known as contour lines, connect points of equal value on a map. They show characteristics such as elevation, temperature, rainfall, and pressure. Isolines are always closed, do not cross, and indicate a rapid change where spaced closely and a gradual change where spaced far apart. Different types of isolines include isobars for pressure, isotherms for temperature, and contour lines for elevation shown on topographic maps.
Lab two location and time
The document discusses latitude, longitude, time zones, and daylight saving time. It explains that:
1) Latitude and longitude were developed in the Middle Ages to create a geographic grid system. Latitude lines run horizontally while longitude lines run vertically.
2) There are 24 time zones that extend 7.5 degrees on either side of standard meridians that are 15 degrees apart, starting from the Prime Meridian in Greenwich, England.
3) Daylight saving time sets clocks forward by one hour in spring and back in fall in many countries to make better use of daylight hours. Crossing the International Date Line results in a one day shift in calendar date.
Solstice and equinox
Equinoxes occur twice yearly when the sun is directly above the equator and day and night are approximately equal in length. Solstices occur twice yearly when the sun reaches its highest or lowest point in the sky, resulting in the longest and shortest days of the year in the summer and winter respectively in each hemisphere. The document then provides details on the timing and effects of the summer and winter solstices and spring and autumn equinoxes in both hemispheres.

_L-14 The Globe- Latitudes and Longitudes new.pptx
Here are the answers:
1. The local time of a place situated 60° W of London will be 6 pm if it is noon in London. Since each 15° of longitude represents a 1 hour time difference, and the place is 60° west of London, the time difference will be 60/15 = 4 hours. So if it is noon in London, the local time at the place 60° W will be noon + 4 hours = 6 pm.
2. The local time of a place situated 90° E of London will be 3 pm if it is 9 am in London. Since each 15° of longitude represents a 1 hour time difference, and the place is 90° east of London, the time difference will be

This document discusses time zones and the International Date Line. It explains that:
- The world is divided into 24 time zones that are approximately 15 degrees of longitude wide.
- Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is used as a global time standard and does not change with seasons.
- The International Date Line runs from the North Pole to the South Pole and is located at 180 degrees longitude, opposite the Prime Meridian.
- Crossing the International Date Line from west to east results in gaining a day, while crossing from east to west results in losing a day.

The document provides information about longitude and latitude lines and how they divide the Earth. It discusses the following key points:
- Longitude and latitude lines divide the Earth into four hemispheres. The equator (0° latitude) divides the north and south hemispheres, and the Greenwich meridian and 180° longitude line divide the east and west hemispheres.
- Longitude lines run north-south and are measured in degrees and minutes from 0° at the Greenwich meridian. They indicate locations east or west. Latitude lines run east-west parallel to the equator and indicate locations north and south.
- Coordinates using degrees of longitude and latitude are used to indicate precise locations on Earth. The intersection of the
Prime Meridian,Equator, Latitude and longitude
This document defines and explains key concepts related to latitude, longitude, and their use in determining locations on Earth. It discusses the prime meridian, equator, latitude, longitude, north and south latitudes, east and west longitudes, and the international date line. Latitude lines run parallel around the globe, measuring angles north and south of the equator, while longitude lines converge at the poles, measuring angles east and west of the prime meridian. Together, latitude and longitude precisely locate positions worldwide.

The document discusses patterns observed in the night sky from Earth and what was historically mysterious about planetary motions. It describes how planets appear to move eastward but sometimes backwards, known as retrograde motion. The ancient Greeks could not explain this and rejected that Earth orbits the sun due to being unable to detect the parallax of distant stars with the naked eye. They concluded Earth must be stationary at the center of the universe. The document also reviews lunar phases, eclipses, and the reasons for seasons.
02 lecture outline
The document discusses patterns observed in the night sky from Earth and what was historically mysterious about planetary motions. Specifically:
1) Planets appear to normally move eastward among the stars but sometimes reverse to westward motion, known as retrograde motion. This was difficult to explain under the ancient Earth-centered model.
2) The ancient Greeks rejected the sun-centered explanation for planetary motion because they thought stellar parallax should be observable if the stars were actually very far away.
3) What appears as retrograde motion of planets is actually caused by Earth "lapping" other planets in their orbits around the sun.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.

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.
