What Makes Air Go In and Out? Objective: | to describe what makes air go in and out of the lungs | Student Information: | Your lungs do not have muscles. You breathe by changing the size of your chest. The air around you has pressure. It is pushing in on you all of the time. When you make your chest bigger, air comes into your body and fills up your lungs. To breathe out, you make your chest smaller. This pushes the air back out. | Materials: | 16 or 20 oz. plastic bottle a small

Wind direction and pressure, and, to a much lesser degree, increase in runway slope may need to be taken into account. humidity will cause an increase in density altitude. In hot and humid conditions, the density

Hyperloop Alpha Intro The first several pages will attempt to describe the design in everyday language, keeping numbers to a minimum and avoiding formulas and jargon. I apologize in advance for my loose use of language and imperfect analogies. The second section is for those with a technical background. There are no doubt errors of various kinds and superior optimizations for elements of the system. Feedback would be most welcome – please send to hyperloop@spacex.com or hyperloop@teslamotors

Describe and Explain what rejuvenation is and the effect rejuvenation has on the river. Rejuvenation is when a river has to readjust itself and the land around it, usually by increasing the amount of vertical erosion it carries out to a change in the base level. It is caused by various factors, including river capture, isostatic sea level change and eustatic sea level change. Due to it changing its processes, a river undergoing rejuvenation creates many new landforms. A river is said to be rejuvenated when

of abiotic components that determine the long-term weather pattern in a particular area. In this experiment, the researchers investigated key climatic factors, namely: temperature, light intensity, relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, atmospheric pressure, precipitation and rate of evaporation. The study sites of the investigators are located at the College of Medicine, Pedro Gil St., University of the Philippines Manila and were collected last November 19, 2010. The ecological significance

- Background Information: Boyle’s Law has a relationship where for a fixed mass of gas, at a constant temperature, the product is a constant, (pressure x volume). If Volume increases, pressure has to decrease to keep it constant. The formula of Boyle’s Law used is P1xV1=P2xV2. When the volume of a container containing gas is bigger the pressure of the gas particles is less because there is more space for the particles to move in. Otherwise, the smaller the volume in the container the pressure is

The dry adiabatic rate is the rate of cooling or warming of unsaturated air. The environmental lapse rate is the rate of change in temperature with altitude. 5.) By releasing a radiosonde which is a balloon shaped instrument that sends back temperature data. 7.) Clouds formed in stable conditions will have usually form relatively thin layers
