1 Title: Greenhouse Effect and Surface Radiation Description: Students will design a controlled experiment to demonstrate the greenhouse effect and the effect of different surfaces on light reflection. Materials: 2 large beakers per group, plastic wrap, thermometers or Intel temperature probes (2 per student group) different substances for the bottom of the beakers such as dirt, water, white paper, snow, black paper, grass or leaves, rocks etc., light sources (4-5 per classroom) student page (see below) Time Needed: 70 minutes Background Knowledge: Students should be able to read a thermometer or use their Intel probe. Procedures: Day 1 (20 minutes) 1. Read the introduction on the student page with students. Show students the materials and read the procedures with them. Have students look carefully at the drawings. 2. Remind student that the reason for the control is to have a way to compare their test results. 3. Give students time to work in their groups and decide on what substance they want to place in the bottom of their beakers. Have a group member come to the board and write the groups choice on it. No two groups can have the same one. 4. Groups may chose to place substances in their beaker that you do not provide. Give them the opportunity to bring them in for the experiment on day Have students write a hypothesis based on the list of substances on the board. Have them predict which beaker will heat the most and the least. Day 2 (50 minutes) 1. Have students begin their experiment and place it under the light source. Remind them to keep the beakers about 30 cm from the light. 2. Allow 12 minutes for students to gather and record data. 3. Have students report to the class by group with their findings. Record their findings on the board or an overhead as they present them. Ex.: Surface Water Dirt Beaker A(no wrap) Beaker B (with wrap) Difference (B- A=) 4. Have each group explain why they think they got their results.
2 Scoring Guide 1. Student participates and contributes to activity.4 2. Student collects data and graphs accurately.4 3. Student correctly answers analysis questions..4
3 Name Title: Greenhouse Effect And Surface Radiation Introduction: Earth of often compared to a greenhouse with the atmosphere acting like the windows of the greenhouse. Light enters through the windows or atmosphere, changes to heat as it strikes the surface objects and is trapped. Light reflects differently off of different substances in the greenhouse. You may have experienced this phenomenon in the summer as you attempted to walk across an asphalt road on a sunny day. In this experiment you will individually test 2 beakers for the greenhouse effect and as a class, compare surfaces. Materials: 2 large beakers, a substance to place in the beakers (water, sawdust, leaves, dirt, white paper, black paper, aluminum foil, styrofoam, cardboard) plastic wrap, two thermometers or Intel probes, masking tape, ruler Hypothesis: (Which substances do you predict will have the highest and lowest temperatures at the end of the experiment?) Procedures: A B 1. Get your materials and place your substance on the bottom of them. You should only have thin layer of the substance. One beaker will have plastic wrap over the top. 2. Tape your thermometer so that it doesn t touch the bottom or sides of the beaker. 3. Place your beakers 30 cm from the light source. 4. Take readings of the temperatures for 12 minutes. 5. Graph your results. 6. Report to the class your highest readings for both beakers and the difference between them. Be prepared to explain why you think your beaker responded the way it did. 7. Clean up as directed.
4 Data: Temperature Time Beaker A Beaker B Temperature Time
5 Analysis: 1. Which of your beakers had the highest temperature? Why do you think this was so? 2. Which beaker in the class had the highest temperature? Why do you think this was so? 3. Which beaker in the class had the lowest temperature? Why do you think this was so? 4. Venus has an atmosphere much thicker than Earth s. What would you predict about temperatures on Venus? 5. Mars has an atmosphere much thinner than Earth s. What would you predict about temperatures on Mars? 6. What factors influence the temperature of air? 7. Scientists hypothesis that human activities are adding greenhouse gases to Earth s atmoshere that will increase Earth s temperatures. What evidence from this experiment supports this hypothesis? Conclusion:
