Flashback Friday - MP3 - Week 1

Arjun, Aria, and Isla are having a debate. Arjun says a force is a power used by Han Solo, Aria thinks it's a push or pull on an object measured in Newtons (N), and Isla believes it's a motion that causes force. Who do you think is correct?

• Arjun - A force is a power used by Han Solo

• Aria - A force is a Push or Pull on an object measured in Newtons (N)

• Isla - A force is a motion that causes force

• None of them - Motion and force are unrelated

Imagine Olivia, Isla, and Elijah are playing a game of tag. Olivia is running at a constant speed, Isla is standing still, and Elijah is trying to tag them. According to Newton's first law of motion, what would happen if Elijah doesn't manage to tag anyone?

• Olivia would continue running at the same speed and in the same direction, and Isla would stay still, unless an unbalanced force acts upon them.

• Isla would suddenly start running on her own.

• Olivia would eventually come to a stop.

• Olivia would suddenly change her direction.

• By increasing atomic number and recurring chemical properties

What are the properties of elements in the periodic table?

• Molecular weight, ionization energy, electronegativity, reactivity

• Atomic number, atomic mass, chemical symbol, group and period numbers

• Number of protons, number of neutrons, number of electrons, valence electrons

• Boiling point, melting point, density, color

Evelyn, David, and William are on a quest to understand the mysteries of the Earth. They stumbled upon the term 'topography'. Can you help them understand what topography is and how it affects the environment?

• Topography refers to the shape and features of the land surface. It affects the environment by influencing factors such as water flow, erosion, and the distribution of plants and animals.

• Topography is the study of clouds and their formation. It affects the environment by controlling the temperature and weather patterns.

• Topography is the study of ancient civilizations and their impact on the environment. It affects the environment by influencing historical events and cultural development.

• Topography is the study of ocean currents and their impact on marine life. It affects the environment by regulating the temperature and salinity of the water.

Evelyn, Emma, and Benjamin are on a thrilling adventure to explore the different types of landforms found in topography. Can you help them identify these landforms?

• Deserts, oceans, forests, tundra

• Cities, towns, villages, suburbs

• Continents, countries, states, cities

• Mountains, hills, plateaus, plains, valleys, and canyons

What are tectonic plates and how do they cause earthquakes?

• Tectonic plates are made of ice and water and don't have any effect on earthquakes.

• Tectonic plates are small pieces of the Earth's crust that don't move or interact with each other. Earthquakes are caused by volcanic eruptions.

• Tectonic plates are large pieces of the Earth's crust that move and interact with each other. Earthquakes occur in transform boundaries.

• Tectonic plates are imaginary lines drawn on maps and have no impact on earthquakes.

Imagine you're on a thrilling adventure with Maya, Liam, and Abigail. You stumble upon an ancient scroll that describes the process of plate tectonics and its impact on the Earth's surface. Which of the following translations of the scroll is correct?

• Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle, leading to processes such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains.

• Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is made of cheese and chocolate, causing earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

• Plate tectonics is the belief that Earth's surface is flat and stationary, with no movement or changes over time.

• Plate tectonics is the process of Earth's crust shrinking and expanding, leading to the formation of new oceans and continents.
