Pi Day Project Reporting

As you begin to prepare your performances please keep these things in mind:


Be sure to not just write the ANSWERS. BE READY TO EXPLAIN and SHOW EACH PIECE!
Instead of writing the questions and then the answers for your projects, write the questions as statements. For Example: If I was looking up “1. What is the volume of Jupiter?”  I would put on my poster board, power point, prezi :

The Volume of Jupiter

V = 4/3 r3
Then fill in all variables with your numbers and show the final answer.

V = 1.33(3.14 * 673803)
 


V= 1.896 E+ 10



AND IF YOU WONDER WHAT E+10 on the calculator means,
Turn  V= 1.896 E+ 10 into  V= 1.896 X 1010

r
V= 1896000000

Next, don’t forget the units for all of your math and science:

V= 1896000000 km3

Solar Tsunami Group Research

Research to look into. This is also on your Google Doc

What I Googled: “solar flares 2012”
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012-superFlares.html

Look into this site, from same Google search. It details a little better the technological disruption faced by solar storms, and they indicate their may also be an upside.

Modifying your search a bit more will lead you to credible sites & data. I Googled: “solar flares 2012 nasa”
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012.html

Modify again and you’ll find videos, I Googled: “solar tsunami 2012 nasa”
