Earth Science!!!!

A few days ago in green science, the class started Earth science, which I learned last year in sixth grade. Today's video was so boring yet filled with information I learned last year. Besides, the narrator spoke so softly, I felt really tired but I managed to stay awake until the end of class. The video contained information about mountains, faults, volcanos and all that rocky goodness (bad joke). We also got the rubrics for the tic-tac-toe Newton's laws for the roller coasters/skate park.


Here is my web address for the Triple Threat website :http://www.geocities.com/harypotterultimate/triplethreat.html
Hope you enjoy it!

roller coasters part 1

Today in class, we started on the roller coaster/skate park project. Mrs. Rousseau went over the guidelines for the project and went over the prices. Some of our team mates didn't agree with the prices, arguing that the prices were rip-offs and such. What surprised me the most was that I either had to write something about the coaster, create a flyer/brochure/website about the coaster saying how Newtons laws apply to the coaster and the cost to ride the coaster and such. At http://www.sixflags.com/greatAdventure/rides/Kingdaka.aspx, the fastest tallest coaster, Kingda Ka is a great example of a coaster for this projects, except for the fact that the cart is launched at 128 mph via hydrolic lift. However, the best example that I can give you is The greatest wooden coaster EL TORRO. With more than four hills and second fastest coaster, you'll literally scream your head off at the beastly twister finale. These coasters will make the other coasters look like scale models made of cardboard. Who knows. your design might be made into a real roller coaster someday.

potentially habitable planet?

Today, there has been a major sighting. In Washington today, astronomers have sighted a potencially habitable planet in a galaxy about 120 trillion miles away (or for those who like scientific notation, 1.2*10 to the power of 13, sorry, can't find superscript button.) The planet can have the same temperature as Earth, and have water in it's liquid form! However, the star it orbits is what we call a "red dwarf", which is smaller and cooler than the Sun. More Information on this topic can be found at http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070425/ap_on_sc/habitable_planet;_ylt=Ai8mgSIcdtgGR9jk_kzczJuHgsgF

Ask a songbird: how does it change tunes?

Songbirds may change tunes with ups and downs, and cresendos and decresendos to make a elegant sound to attract mates. But how do they do it? First off, the sound is produced from the syrinx, which act like human vocal cords. The sound is produced when air passes through the syrinx, folds of tissue resonates, making the beutiful sound you hear when you take a walk. Before, they thought that a bird's upper vocal tract was like a stiff tube; the sound depends on how wide the beak is opened. X-ray movies show how a northern cardinal change sound by rapidly changing the shape of the vocal tract from a drinking straw like shape to a flower pot like shape. The point of the vocal tract is to shape the monotone call from the syrinx and add some color to the call. So when you go out for a walk in the park, the songbird may have a vocal tract changing to make the song for you!
