Shadow Tricks
clearly, are called translucent. Performing shadow tricks is a fun way to explore how light behaves when it encounters various materials and objects. In this video segment, the children use the Sun as their light source and a sheet as the surface on which...
The Earth's Shadow
The Earth's Shadow Site Map (9a-1) The Earth's Shadow In a lunar eclipse, if the width of the shadow of the Earth is twice the width of the Moon, then the width of the Earth itself is (very nearly) three times that of the Moon--not twice, as one might perhaps think....

Fear of Physics: Why Eclipses of the Sun Happen
[Home > Setup > Sun Earth Moon > Solar Eclipses] Why Eclipses of the Sun Happen Once in a while, you will be in the position to see a solar eclipse. In the last animation, you may have noticed times when the moon moved between the Earth and the Sun. When this happen...
Solar Eclipses
As the Moon moves in its orbit, the position of the shadow changes, so total solar eclipses usually only last a minute or two in a given location. In ancient times, people were frightened by solar eclipses (even back then people realized that the Sun was essential to l...

necessary to sustain life on Earth. DOK 3 SC-05-4.6.2 Students will understand that the Sun is a major source of energy for changes on Earth’s surface. The Sun loses energy by emitting light. A tiny fraction of that light reaches Earth, transferring energy from the Sun to Earth. SC-EP-4.6.3 Students will analyze models of basic electrical circuits using batteries, bulbs and wires, in order to determine whether a simple circuit is open or closed. Electricity in circuits can produce light

consists of random motion and the vibrations of atoms and molecules. The higher the temperature, the greater the atomic or molecular motion. Thermal insulators are materials that resist the flow of heat. Explain how various types of insulation slow transfer of heat energy based on the atomic- molecular model of heat (thermal energy). 6-8 PS3D Visible light from the Sun is made up of a mixture of all colors of light. To see an object, light emitted or reflected by that object must enter the eye
