Yesterday, you used digital thermometers to gather data. Today we are going to share that data.
- 1. Mark your data points on the map.
- 2. Mark another person's data points on your map.
- 3. Make sure that both samples are in the same units. You can use GOOGLE as a conversion tool by entering CONVERT ___F to C. Alternatively, you can use the formula (°F - 32) x 5/9 = °C
- Does your data suggest EVEN or UNEVEN heating on the schools grounds? Explain, remembering that the greater temperature differences create MORE winds.
- If the wind was flying in my face when I stood on the curved section of the parking lot with my back facing the school bell at the old entrance, what does that tell me? Draw this motion as a large area across the page.
- Heat moves from hotter areas to colder areas. Use a green pencil and create arrows that represent this.
- Order the surfaces from coldest to warmest, based on the average temperature you were assigned to find. All temperatures should be in degrees C. Make a list from cold to warm of the surface and its respective temperature.
- When the air is hot, it rises and the cold air sinks. What phenomena does that cause?
Use your map to answer the board questions.
