Mr. Spruill – Science Activity: Up, Up, and Away! Part IProblem:To create a semi-scale drawing of the atmosphere Materials:One legal-size sheet of plain white paper, pencil, ruler, map colors or markers, etc. Procedure:You can find the HYPERLINK "" \l "answers" answers below. Neatly fold the paper in half the short way.Turn paper long ways in front of you.The scale for this diagram has been pre-determined to be _____________.Measure one centimeter from the bottom on both sides of the paper.Use the ruler to draw a line between the dots and to the sides of the paper and parallel with the bottom. Label this space earth.From the line just drawn, measure ________ and put a dot on both sides of the paper. Using the ruler, draw a line parallel to the previous line. Label this area the ____________________.Repeat step 5 for the __________________ and the ___________________ (next two layers) remembering to use the scale _____________.By now you should almost be to the halfway mark of the paper. From this point, it is impossible to draw the remaining layer _____________________________________ or sublayers _______________________and _______________________ to scale.From the top on both sides of the paper, measure __________ from the top of the paper. Using the ruler draw a line between the dots parallel to the top of the paper. This line is for you to write the title of this drawing.Divide the remaining paper in half. Label the top section _________________________ and the bottom section ________________________. Put arrows pointing upwards in the ___________________ to indicate that this layer continues beyond the paper. Follow ALL the directions on Part II Answers:none none 1 millimeter=1 kilometer none none 12 km (ave. height of troposphere) X 1 mm=12 mm, troposphere stratosphere, mesosphere, 1 mm=1 km thermosphere, ionosphere, exosphere 2 cm exosphere, ionosphere, exosphere none Activity: Up, Up, and Away! Part IIDirections:Write the answers beside each of the questions below and do what it says to do on your scale drawing.Label the fours layers of the atmosphere. Also, label the tropopause, the ionosphere, and the exosphere.Write the constant temperature in the stratosphere.Put a star in the layer where weather occurs.Put an X in the coldest zone.Put XX in the layer where satellites orbit the earth.Using dots, shade in the ozone layer in the stratosphere.Write in each layer the height at which it begins and ends.Put XXX where we find the jet stream.In the Mesophere, write how it protects the earth.In the Ionosphere, tell how it is useful to man.Using the information and symbols given, put the following on your diagram at the correct altitudes.Lightly color each layer a different color.A ship at sea - 0 km?Tiros weather satellite - 600 km?Manned Balloon - 6 km?Jet plane - 11 km?Mt. Everest - 9 km?Nonpressurized plane - 4 km?Auroras (Northern Lights) - 350 km??Flock of Geese - 6.4 km?Gemini Spacecraft - 300 km?Altostratus clouds - 1.4 km? Cirrus clouds - 10 km?Weather rocket - 150 km??Meteors - 80 km?? ................
