How does science work to solve environmental problems? Explain the steps in the scientific process as it relates to an environmental problem and describe one potential challenge to solving that problem. And…

Why is it important to consider the natural, social, cultural and economic environments (address each individually) in any environmental problem-solving?

Determine the horizon angle of sunrise and sunset and calculate the noon sun angle (maximum zenith) for February 12 for Wayne, NJ, approximate latitude: 41 degrees north. (Use the closest equinox date for calculation of angular change).
Determine the horizon angle of sunrise and sunset and calculate the noon sun angle (maximum zenith) for July 15 for Wayne, NJ, approximate latitude: 41 degrees north. (Use the closest equinox date for calculation of angular change).
What latitude in the northern hemisphere would have a noon sun angle (maximum zenith) of approximately 53 degrees on May 10th? (Use the closest equinox date for calculation of angular change). This is a variation of problems we solved in class that will require some thought. (Hint: write everything out and work the problem backwards).

Experiment
You want to determine which fertilizer makes corn plants grow the tallest, Miracle Grow, Scotts,
or Pennington. You plant rows of corn and treat each row with a different type of fertilizer. You
measure the average height for each row after 10 weeks.
Questions
Name the Independent and Dependent Variables from the experiment above.
Name two good Control Variables you would keep track of in this experiment.
This experiment needs a Control Experiment added to it. Is it a Positive Control or Negative
Control that you need to add? Describe what you would do.
Create a hypothesis for this experiment.
