Title Page
Introduction
- Give a brief overview of the properties and composition of the Sun (Use the lab manual and the textbook chapters 15 and 16 )
- Discuss the process of fusion, plasma, and how these phenomena produce the features of the Sun that we are able to observe
- Review differential rotation and why this occurs
- ~ 1000 words
Results
- Produce a chart as outlined in the lab manual/googlesheets instructions
- Since you are analyzing two objects, there should be two sections in the chart.
- Must be completed in a spreadsheet program
- The chart must be properly labeled and organized. Use the MLA format.
- It must be embedded within the text
Discussion
- Answer the questions at the end of the Solar Rotation Lab Manual. They are not the same as in the Google Sheets.
- This must be in paragraph form.
- When completing the discussion use specific data values in order to support your conclusions. An example would be ” I obtained a solar rotation value of 15 days, and the actual solar rotation value at a latitude of 0 degrees is 17 days. From this result I can conclude that I observed differential rotation“. Do not write “Yes, my results were accurate”.
- If you use an outside references they must be cited. MLA format. No need for outline.
