Earth

EARTH

From the perspective we get on Earth, our planet appears to be big and sturdy with an endless ocean of air. From space, astronauts often get the impression that the Earth is small with a thin, fragile layer of atmosphere. For a space traveler, the distinguishing Earth features are the blue waters, brown and green land masses and white clouds set against a black background.
Many dream of traveling in space and viewing the wonders of the universe. In reality all of us are space travelers. Our spaceship is the planet Earth, traveling at the speed of 108,000 kilometers (67,000 miles) an hour.
Earth is the 3rd planet from the Sun at a distance of about 150 million kilometers (93.2 million miles). It takes 365.256 days for the Earth to travel around the Sun and 23.9345 hours for the Earth rotate a complete revolution. It has a diameter of 12,756 kilometers (7,973 miles), only a few hundred kilometers larger than that of Venus. Our atmosphere is composed of 78 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen and 1 percent other constituents.
Earth is the only planet in the solar system known to harbor life. Our planet's rapid spin and molten nickel-iron core give rise to an extensive magnetic field, which, along with the atmosphere, shields us from nearly all of the harmful radiation coming from the Sun and other stars. Earth's atmosphere protects us from meteors, most of which burn up before they can strike the surface. [klik]

Galaxy

Galaxy is a massive, gravitationally bound system that consists of stars and stellar remnants, an interstellar medium of gas and dust, and an important but poorly understood component tentatively dubbed dark matter. The name is from the Greek root galaxias [γαλαξίας], meaning "milky," a reference to the Milky Way galaxy. Typical galaxies range from dwarfs with as few as ten million stars up to giants with one trillion stars, all orbiting the galaxy's center of mass. Galaxies can also contain many multiple star systems, star clusters, and various interstellar clouds. The Sun is one of the stars in the Milky Way galaxy; the Solar System includes the Earth and all the other objects that orbit the Sun.
Historically, galaxies have been categorized according to their apparent shape (usually referred to as their visual morphology). A common form is the elliptical galaxy, which has an ellipse-shaped light profile. Spiral galaxies are disk-shaped assemblages with curving, dusty arms. Galaxies with irregular or unusual shapes are known as peculiar galaxies, and typically result from disruption by the gravitational pull of neighboring galaxies. Such interactions between nearby galaxies, which may ultimately result in galaxies merging, may induce episodes of significantly increased star formation, producing what is called a starburst galaxy. Small galaxies that lack a coherent structure could also be referred to as irregular galaxies.
There are probably more than 100 billion (1011) galaxies in the observable universe. Most galaxies are 1,000 to 100,000 parsecs in diameter and are usually separated by distances on the order of millions of parsecs (or megaparsecs). Intergalactic space (the space between galaxies) is filled with a tenuous gas of an average density less than one atom per cubic meter. The majority of galaxies are organized into a hierarchy of associations called clusters, which, in turn, can form larger groups called superclusters. These larger structures are generally arranged into sheets and filaments, which surround immense voids in the universe.
Although it is not yet well understood, dark matter appears to account for around 90% of the mass of most galaxies. Observational data suggests that supermassive black holes may exist at the center of many, if not all, galaxies. They are proposed to be the primary cause of active galactic nuclei found at the core of some galaxies. The Milky Way galaxy appears to harbor at least one such object within its nucleus.

Pelajar sekarang malas membaca

Pelajar sekarang malas membaca

GEORGE TOWN - "Pelajar kini makin malas membaca, berfikir dan menilai."

Begitulah nada kecewa yang disuarakan penerima Anugerah Tokoh Akademik Negara 2008, Prof. Dr. Muhammad Salleh yang menyifatkan ramai golongan pelajar masa kini sama ada di sekolah mahupun universiti kurang membaca dan ia berbeza berbanding generasi lampau.

Beliau yang juga Sasterawan Negara berkata, biarpun seronok menjadi seorang pendidik namun beliau kecewa apabila pelajar yang lahir daripada sistem pendidikan sekarang tidak lagi cintakan buku.

"Sebagai pendidik, kita membina watak manusia yang boleh berfikir, berhujah dan menilai sesuatu yang berlaku.

"Namun jika kurang membaca, bagaimana pelajar itu mahu berfikir serta memberi pendapat serta menyelesaikan setiap masalah yang timbul," katanya ketika ditemui selepas majlis perasmian Ekspo Konvokesyen 2009 (Convex 09) Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) di sini semalam.

INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS)

The International Space Station (ISS) is an internationally developed research facility currently being assembled in Low Earth Orbit. On-orbit construction of the station began in 1998 and is scheduled to be complete by 2011, with operations continuing until at least 2015.The ISS orbits at an altitude of approximately 350 kilometres (220 mi) above the surface of the Earth,travelling at an average speed of 27,724 kilometres (17,227 mi) per hour, completing 15.7 orbits per day.The station can be seen from the Earth with the naked eye, and, as of 2009, is the largest artificial satellite in Earth orbit, with a mass larger than that of any previous space station.

Space Shuttle Overview: Endeavour (OV-105)


Authorized by Congress in August 1987 as a replacement for the Space Shuttle orbiter Challenger, Endeavour (OV-105) arrived at Kennedy Space Center's Shuttle Landing Facility on May 7, 1991, piggy-backed on top of NASA's new Space Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. For the first time, an orbiter was named through a national competition involving students in elementary and secondary schools. They were asked to select a name based upon an exploratory or research sea vessel. In May 1989, President George Bush announced the winning name.

Image left: Space Shuttle Endeavour blazes into the night sky on mission STS-113, the 19th for Endeavour, and the 112th flight in the Shuttle program. Image credit: NASA Endeavour was named after a ship chartered to traverse the South Pacific in 1768 and captained by 18th century British explorer James Cook, an experienced seaman, navigator and amateur astronomer. He commanded a crew of 93 men, including 11 scientists and artists.

Two Moons on August 27 2009?

Mars as big as the moon on August 27, 2009?

The Red Planet is about to be spectacular! 

This month and next, Earth is catching up with Mars in an encounter that will culminate in the closest approach between the two planets in recorded history. 

The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287. 

Due to the way Jupiter's gravity tugs on Mars and perturbs its orbit, astronomers can only be certain that Mars has not come this close to Earth in the Last 5,000 years, but it may be as long as 60,000 years before it happens again. The encounter will culminate on August 27th when Mars comes to within 34,649,589 miles of Earth and will be (next to the moon) the brightest object in the night sky. It will attain a magnitude of -2.9 and will appear 25.11 arc seconds wide. 

At a modest 75-power magnification Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye

Kelebihan Solat Berjemaah Menurut Teori Fizik
Seorang professor fizik di Amerika Syarikat telah membuat satu kajian tentang kelebihan solat berjemaah yang disyariatkan dalam Islam.Katanya tubuh badan kita mengandungi dua cas elektrik iatu cas positif dan cas negatif. Dalam aktiviti harian kita sama ada bekerja, beriadah atau berehat, sudah tentu banyak tenaga digunakan.
Dalam proses pembakaran tenaga, banyak berlaku pertukaran cas positif dan cas negatif, yang menyebabkan ketidakseimbangan dalam tubuh kita. Ketidakseimbangan cas dalam badan menyebabkan kita rasa letih dan lesu setelah menjalankan aktiviti seharian.Oleh itu cas-cas ini perlu diseimbangkan semula untuk mengembalikan kesegaran tubuh ke tahap normal.
Berkaitan dengan solat berjemaah, timbul persoalan di minda professor ini mengapa Islam mensyariatkan solat berjemah dan mengapa solat lima waktu yang didirikan orang Islam mempunyai bilangan rakaat yang tidak sama.Hasil kajiannya mendapati bilangan rakaat yang berbeza dalam solat kita bertindak menyeimbangkan cas-cas dalam badan kita.Semasa kita solat berjemaah, kita disuruh meluruskan saf, bahu bertemu bahu dan bersentuhan tapak kaki.Tindakan-tindakan yang dianjurkan semasa solat berjemaah itu mempunyai berbagai kelebihan.
Kajian sains mendapati sentuhan yang berlaku antara tubuh kita dengan tubuh ahli jemaah lain yang berada di kiri dan kanan kita akan menstabilkan kembali cas-cas yang diperlukan oleh tubuh.Ia berlaku apabila cas yang berlebihan-sama ada negatif atau positif akan dikeluarkan, manakala yang berkurangan akan ditarik ke dalam kita.Semakin lama pergeseran ini berlaku, semakin seimbang cas dalam tubuh kita.
Menurut beliau lagi, setiap kali kita bangun dari tidur, badan kita akan merasa segar dan sihat setelah berehat berapa jam. Ketika ini tubuh kita mengandungi cas-cas positif dan negatif yang hampir seimbang.Oleh itu, kita hanya memerlukan sedikit lagi proses pertukaran cas agar keseimbangan penuh dapat dicapai.Sebab itu, solat Subuh didirikan 2 rakaat.
Seterusnya, setelah sehari kita bekerja kuat dan memerah otak semua cas ini kembali tidak stabil akibat kehilangan cas lebih banyak daripada tubuh.Oleh itu, kita memerlukan lebih banyak pertukaran cas.Solat jemaah yang disyariatkan Islam berperanan untuk memulihkan keseimbangan cas-cas berkenaan.Sebab itu, solat Zohor didirikan 4 rakaat untuk memberi ruang yang lebih kepada proses pertukaran cas dakam tubuh.
Situasi yang sama turut berlaku di sebelah petang.Banyak tenaga dikeluarkan ketika menyambung kembali tugas.Ini menyebabkan sekali lagi kita kehilangan cas yang banyak.Seperti mana solat Zohor, 4 rakaat solat Asar yang dikerjakanakan memberikan ruang kepada proses pertukaran cas dengan lebih lama.Lazimnya, selepas waktu Asar dan pulang dari kerja kita tidak lagimelakukan aktiviti-aktiviti yang banyak menggunakan tenaga.Masa yang diperuntukkan pula tidak begitu lama.Maka, solat Maghrib hanya dikerjakan sebanyak 3 rakaat adalah lebih sesuai dengan penggunaan tenaga yang kurang berbanding 2 waktu sebelumnya.
Timbul persoalan di fikiran professor itu tentang solat Isyak yang mengandungi 4 rakaat.Logiknya, pada waktu malam kita tidak banyak melakukan aktiviti dan sudah tentu tidak memerlukan proses pertukaran cas yang banyak.Setelah kajian lanjut, didapati terdapat keistimewaan mengapa Allah mensyariatkan 4 rakat dalam solat Isyak.Kita sedia maklum, umat Islam amat digalakkan untuk tidur awal agar mampu bangun menunaikan tahajjud di sepertiga malam.Ringkasnya, solat Isyak sebanyak 4 rakaat itu akan menstabilkan cas dalam badan serta memberikan tenaga untuk kita bangun malam (qiamullail).Dalam kajiannya, professor ini mendapati bahawa Islam adalah satu agama yang lengkap dan istimewa.Segala amalan dan suruhan Allah Taala itu mempunyai hikmah ynag tersirat untuk kebaikan umat Islam itu sendiri.
Beliau merasakan betapa kerdilnya diri dan betapa hebatnya Pencipta alam ini.Akhirnya, dengan hidayah Allah beliau memeluk agama Islam.Wallahualam.(apepun, kita renung kembali kepada firman Allah Ta'ala dalam surah az-Zariyyat yang bermaksud : " dan tidaklah Aku jadikan Jin dan Manusia itu kecuali mereka beribadat kepada-KU"):: maka benarlah Allah yang Maha Berkuasa ::

EXPLANATION- Form 4

Chapter 2: Force and Motion
Implusive Force
In two separate boxing ring, a kick-boxer Thailand fights without wearing boxing gloves whereas a boxer from Malaysia fights with a pair of boxing gloves. Explain who will cause more injury to their opponent if both boxers punch with the same force. (3 marks)
Answer:
- Thai boxer
- Without wearing boxing gloves, the time for change momentum is shorter.
- The impulsive force is larger.

Gravitational Force
Explain why it is easier to walk on a rough surface than on an oily surface (4 marks)
Answer:
- A rough surface produce more friction.
- Therefore better grip and less slipping between the soles and the surface. Thus easier to walk.
- An oily surface reduces contact between the soles and the surface no opposing force will act
- Therefore difficult to walk.

Energy
A stone which released from a tall building falls down in the air. During the fall, the stone experiences an energy change. Explain the energy changes in the stone. (4 marks)
Answer:
- Total energy at any time is constant
- As the stone falls, gravitational potential energy convert to kinetic energy
- Gravitational potential is maximum at the highest point
- Kinetic energy converts to heat and sound when it hits the ground.

Elasticity
Explain how the forces between the molecules cause the elasticity
Answer:
- The forces between the molecules are attractive forces and repulsive forces
- When the solid is stretched, the molecules to be displaced away from each other
- Attractive intermolecular forces act to oppose the stretching
- When the solid is compressed, the molecules are being displaced closer to each other. Repulsive forces are acting to oppose the compression.

Chapter 3: Force and Pressure

Atmospheric pressure
Explain why places at high altitude the temperature is colder compare to places at low altitude which is more warmer.
Answer:
- high altitude low density of air
- less collision of molecules with surface
- low altitude high density of air
- more collision of molecules with surface
- if more collision of molecules with surface, heat energy are more produced. So that low collision is more warmer.

Pressure in Liquid
A small bubble of air is released from the bottom of a lake.
(i) Explain what happens to the size of bubble as it rises to the surface of the water.
[2 marks]
(ii) Explain how this change affects the upward motion of the bubble.
[2 marks] Answer:
(i) - The pressure of water increases with the depth of the water
- The bubble expands upon reaching the surface of the water//The volume of air bubble increases as the depth of water decreases
(ii) - Buoyant force increases as the volume of the bubble increases
- The air bubble moving with increasing acceleration

Siphon
Explain how a siphon works to transfer liquid from one container to another. (4 marks)
Answer:
- The siphon works based on pressure difference
- Air pressure in the inner tube is less than the atmospheric pressure outside the tube.
- The atmospheric pressure pushes the surface of liquid
- Causes the liquid to flow into the column of the tube. (to the other side of the tube into the other container)

Buoyant Force
1. Explain why a ship may sink when it sails from sea water to fresh water. ( 3 marks)
Answer:
1. In the sea, buoyant force > weight of the ship
2. When the ship in the river, density of water< density of sea, so buoyant force decrease
3. The weight of the ship > the buoyant force ,so the ship will sink

2. Explain why a balloon filled with helium gas rises up in the air. (4 marks)
Answer:
- The balloon acted by two forces: upthrust and the weight of the balloon
- The density of helium gas is less than the density of surrounding air.
- Upthrust equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon
- Upthrust is higher than the weight of the balloon.

5. Explain why the sinking levels of the boats are different in the river and in the sea.
[3 marks]
Answer:
- Sea water is denser
- Boat displaced less sea water and gain the same upthrust .
- Therefore boat sinks less in sea water

6. The submarine is able to submerge in the sea.
Explain how a submarine on the sea surface submerges and float still on the sea surface.
Answer:
- When the ballast tank is filled with water,
- The buoyant force is smaller than the weight of the submarine. It will
sink/submerges
- When the ballast tank is filled with air / when the water pumps out,
- the buoyant force is larger than the weight of the submarine, and it will float.

Hydrometer
A hydromater is used to measure the density of acid a car battery. Using a suitable physisc principle, explain how the hyromater works. (4marks)
Answer:
- related principle is the Archimedes’ Principle.
- Draw a diagram of hyrometer correctly ( small and long stem, with big bulb with lead or steell balls)
- When a hydromater floats in a liquid, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the hydromater
- Bouyant force = rVg / depends on density of liquid
- The smalleer the density of the liquid, the more liquid it displaces and the deeper the hydromater will sink

Bernoulli Principle
The aircraft obtains its lift when flying due to a difference in pressure of the air between the upper and bottom sides of the wings. Explain how this difference in pressure is produced.
[3 marks]
Answer:
- The shape of cross section of the wing causes the speed of airflow
- Above the wings to be higher than the speed of airflow below
- When the speed of moving air is higher, the pressure is lower
- Hence air pressure below the wings is higher compare to above the wings

Pascal Principle
Using a concept of pressure in liquid, explain why the hydraulic system in this machine is known as a force multiplier. (4 marks)
Answer:
1. When the small piston is pulled up, the hydraulic oil is drawn from the reservoir into the small piston
2. When the small piston is pushed down , the hydraulic oil is exerted with force and experienced a pressure
3. The pressure is transmitted uniformly from the small piston to the bigpiston.
4. The forced produced raised the big piston / The system can convert a small input force into a bigger output force.

Chapter 4: Heat
Thermal equilibrium
1. Explain how a new thermometer can be calibrated. [4 marks]
Answer:
- Put the thermometer in melting ice, mark the lower part of mercury thread,l0
- Place the same thermometer in the boiling water, mark the top part of the mercury thread, l 100
- Divide the length between the two marks into 100 equal divisions
- Each division is now equal to 1 o C

2. According to the principle of thermal equilibrium and the working principle of a thermometer, explain how a doctor can check his patient temperature during medical treatment. [ 4 mark ]
Answer:
- Thermometer is placed in the mouth of patient,
- Heat is transferred from patient’s body to the thermometer.
- Thermal equilibrium between the thermometer and patient’s body is reached when the net rate of heat transfer is zero.
- The thermometer and the patient’s body are at the same temperature. The thermometer reading shows the temperature of the patient’s body.

Specific heat capacity
1. Explain why water is normally used as a cooling agent or cooling system in a car engine radiator. ( 4 marks)
Answer:
- It doesn’t react to the inner part of the engine
- it take a long time to heat up water because high specific heat capacity
- can absorb large amount of heat energy
- cheap and easily available

Specific Latent Heat
(i) Your body sweats when you are feeling hot. How does sweating helps to cool down your body? [ 2 marks ]
(ii) Explain why a scald from steam is more serious than the one from boiling water?
[ 2 marks ]
Answer:
(i) - Water evaporates from the skin when we sweat.
- for water to evaporate it use heat from the body
(ii) - Steam has more heat than boiling water
- due to latent heat of vaporization

A student standing near the beach could feel the cool breeze from the sea on a hot day. Explain how the cool breeze from the sea occurs. [3 marks ]
Answer:
- The increase in temperature for land is higher
- The air above land is heated up
- Cooler air from the sea moves towards land

Chapter 5:Light
Reflection of light
Optical Fibre
(ii) With the help of a diagram, explain the working principle of an optical fibre. [4 marks]
Answer:
- Diagram shows a curved optical fibre (with outer and internal layer) with at least two total internal reflection
- The refractive index of the internal layer of the optical fibre is greater than that of the external layer or air
- Angle of incidence, i > critical angle, c
- Total internal reflection occur

Describe how you estimate the focal length of a convex lens. [4 marks]
Answer:
- The convex lens with its holder is aimed at a distant object like a tree.
- Adjust a screen until you see a very sharp and clear image of the distant
object.
- When parallel light rays from a distant object pass through a convex lens, they
will converge to a point called focal point/ label on a diagram
- Measure the distance between the convex lens and screen./ label on a diagram
