ELECTRICITY

Electricity-form of energy

Electric current- flow of energy

Electric charge-made up positive(protons)and negative(electorns

Electric circuit-made up electric components

1.open circuit-made up electric components

2.closed circuit energy flow

Components:

Cell- power supply

Lamp-source of light

Switch-make an electric

Wire-pathway electricity to flow

Conductor-flow easily

 Copper
 Aluminum
 Steel
 Metal

Insulator- Doesn’t let electricity flow

 Wood
 Plastic
 Glass
 Rubber

Temparature-material increase as temp

Diameter- of were

1.Thick-mahina

2.Thin-malakas

3 Types of electric:

1. Energy source
2. Wire
3. Load

Battery – soure of electricity

Switch – control the movement


Schematic diagram-symbol for components of circuit

- Single cell

- Battery

- Connecting wire
EARTHQUAKE

Earthquake – is an unpredictable disaster

2 types of crust

1.Continental crust – makes up earth’s landmass

2.Oceanic crust – makes up most of the ocean floor

3 types of fault

1.Normal fault – hanging wall

2. Reverse fault – hanging wall moves up . compression

3. Strike slip fault – horizontal movement

Stress – push- and-pull action

Fault – where the rocks break or tear apart

Trenches – are the deepest part of ocean

Mantle – 66%

Crust – 1%

Core – 33%

Cause of earthquake- faulting

Effect of earthquake – tsunami

Focus – source of earthquake

Epicenter – location on earth

3 types of seismic waves

1.Primary waves – can move through solid rocks and fluids

2.Secondary waves – perpendicular to the direction of the wave.can only move through solid rocks.can be
recorded

3.Surface waves – source of interaction . travels directly upward to the epicenter

Magnitude - a measure of the amount of energy released

Intensity- amount of damage


Seismograph – a instrument that detects and measures waves

Seismogram – a record

PAG-ASA – Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration.

PAR – Philippine Area of Responsibility

WMO – World Meteorological Organization

PHIVOLCS – Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology

RADAR – radio detection and ranging

TYPHOONS

- Large storm system

Airmasses – weather changes are caused by the movements of bodies of air

2 types

1. Typhoons – northeast pacific ocean


2. Cyclones – Indian ocean.low pressure with rising warm air. Came from the latin word “kyklocin”

Coriolis effect - circulating air is deflected toward the right in the Northern Hemisphere and toward the left
in the Southern Hemisphere

Monsoon - the season of heavy rain, the wind that brings rain, or the heavy rain that falls during the
summer in hot Asian countries

Front – when two masses meet

2 types

1. Cold front
2. Warm front

Eye wall – strongest part

Spiral rainbods – katamtaman

Eye – calm center
