Careers in science

Geologist

1.What training do you need to be a Geologist? to be a geologist you have to prepare in high school,although high schools don't usually offer devoted geology course.You may take computer courses to formulate sample analysis and intelligence processing obligation when you're a geologist. You have to earn the bachelor's degree,the course load will include meteorology,mineralogy,tectonics,stratiography and hydrology most programs also have you participate in one or more field study courses.Third one you have to earn the Masters Degree and you have to obtain your license.


2.What do you do for an average day on the job?
A typical day starts with driving approximately 40 minutes to my office where I will work closely with my boss, co-managers and staff that happen to be in the office.  Many of my staff members are based out of different offices, so I don’t see them every day.  I usually start my day with checking emails, where I receive the bulk of my assignments from upper management and receive notifications from staff on any administrative and technical issues or information.
Most of my day is spent on administrative tasks, problem solving, communicating our efforts to others, organizing, planning and evaluating Section processes, and developing employees.  Administrative tasks include approving time off requests from employees, reviewing budgets and expenditures such as for parts and supplies, and interviewing prospective employees.  Problems can be anything from mechanical issues with the rig to conflicting contractor schedules to determining the funding source for a new priority well site.  Communication on the status of our efforts to others is important and I do this by attending meetings, giving presentations, and making sure our technical reports and data are shared with others.   Future planning for upcoming well sites and needed budgets are also essential, and I continuously evaluate our processes and track our progress, making changes as needed to increase efficiency.   One of my favorite parts of my job is developing employees.  Whether it’s by coaching them on their presentation for the first time or providing them training opportunities, an employee’s success is one of my top priorities.

Forces on a Paper Planes

Aim:
To make the Paper plane that files strait and flies the longest most stable, straight line paper plane flight possible

Hypothesis
I think that my paper plane will go approximately 4.5 meters

Forces on a paper plane

Drag and Gravity

Planes that push a lot of air, like your hand did when it was facing the side, are said to have a lot of "drag," or resistance, to moving through the air. If you want your plane to fly as far as possible, you want a plane with as little drag as possible. A second force that planes need to overcome is "gravity." You need to keep your plane's weight to a minimum to help fight against gravity's pull to the ground.

Thrust and Lift

"Thrust" and "lift" are two other forces that help your plane make a long flight. Thrust is the forward movement of the plane. The initial thrust comes from the muscles of the "pilot" as the paper airplane is launched. After this, paper airplanes are really gliders, converting altitude to forward motion. Lift comes when the air below the airplane wing is pushing up harder than the air above it is pushing down. It is this difference in pressure that enables the plane to fly. Pressure can be reduced on a wing's surface by making the air move over it more quickly. The wings of a plane are curved so that the air moves more quickly over the top of the wing, resulting in an upward push, or lift, on the wing.

Methods

The video i put is the video we use to make our paper planes



Results

Our paper plane flew 5.3 meters strait.

Lab safety report

Aim:To look at safety in the lab by doing the hands on fire experiment.

Equipment's:

  • Dish washing liquid
  • Gas
  • Water
  • tube
  • Soap
Method:
1.Put safety glasses on.
2.Tie hair back,tuck into collar.
3.Wet your hand to elbow.
4.Grab a little bit of soap.
5.Hold strait your arm away from you.
6.Then the teacher will light the lighter and put the lighter under your hands.
7.Slowly put your hands to your front like a hi ten.

Results:
When my hands set on fire it feel hot.and it felt really good.
