    Lab PreviewDirections: Answer these questions before you begin the Lab.

    1. Why are safety goggles especially important when doing this lab?

    2. Based on what you know about the activity from question 1, what can you expect to happenthat might resemble a cinder-cone volcanic eruption? Explain.

    A volcano’s structure can influence how it erupts. Some volcanoes have only onecentral vent, while others have numerous fissures that allow lava to escape.Materials in magma influence its viscosity, or how it flows. If magma is a thinfluid—not viscous—gases can escape easily. But if magma is thick—viscous—gases cannot escape as easily. This builds up pressure within a volcano.

    Real-World QuestionWhat determines the explosiveness of a volcaniceruption?

    Materialsplastic film canisters baking soda (NaHCO3)vinegar (CH3COOH) teaspoon50-mL graduated cylinder

    Goals■ Infer how a volcano’s opening contributes to

    how explosive an eruption might be.■ Hypothesize how the viscosity of magma

    can influence an eruption.

    Safety Precautions

    WARNING: This lab should be done outdoors.Goggles must be worn at all times. The caps ofthe film canisters fly off due to the chemical reac-tion that occurs inside them. Never put anythingin your mouth while doing the experiment.

    Procedure1. Watch your teacher demonstrate this lab

    before attempting to do it yourself.2. Add 15 mL of vinegar to a film canister.3. Place 1 teaspoon of baking soda in the film

    canister’s lid, using it as a type of plate.4. Place the lid on top of the film canister,

    but do not cap it. The baking soda will fallinto the vinegar. Move a safe distanceaway. Record your observations in theData and Observations section.

    5. Clean out your film canister, and repeat thelab, but this time cap the canister quicklyand tightly. Record your observations.

    Lab PreviewDirections: Answer these questions before you begin the Lab.

    1. What about this lab makes wearing goggles a good idea?

    2. Predict which type of wave will show the most motion in the spring. Explain.

    If you and one of your friends hold a long piece of rope between you andmove one end of the rope back and forth, you can send a wave through thelength of the rope. Hold a ruler at the edge of a table securely with one end ofit sticking out from the table’s edge. If you bend the ruler slightly and thenrelease it, what do you experience? How does what you see in the rope andwhat you feel in the ruler relate to seismic waves?

    Real-World QuestionHow do seismic waves differ?

    Materialscoiled spring toyyarn or stringmetric ruler

    Goals■ Demonstrate the motion of primary,

    secondary, and surface waves.■ Identify how parts of the spring move in

    each of the waves.

    Safety Precautions

    Procedure1. Use the table in the Data and Observations

    section to record your observations.2. Tie a small piece of yarn or string to every

    tenth coil of the spring.3. Place the spring on a smooth, flat surface.

    Stretch it so it is about 2 m long (1 m forshorter springs).

    4. Hold your end of the spring firmly. Make awave by having your partner snap thespring from side to side quickly.

    5. Record your observations and draw thewave you and your partner made in thedata table.

    6. Have your lab partner hold his or her endof the spring firmly. Make a wave byquickly pushing your end of the springtoward your partner and bringing it backto its original position.

    7. Record your observations of the wave andof the yarn or string and draw the wave inthe data table.

    8. Have your lab partner hold his or her endof the spring firmly. Move the spring offof the table. Gently move your end of thespring side to side while at the same timemoving it in a rolling motion, first upand away and then down and towardyour partner.

    9. Record your observations and draw thewave in the data table.

    Wave Detecting

    Today, scientists use seismographs to observe and record seismic waves. Before the nineteenthcentury, however, scientists used other types of instruments to study earthquakes. These instru-ments did not record seismic waves. Instead, they indicated the magnitude or direction of anearthquake in a general way. In the 1600s in Italy, for example, scientists used a device that contained water to observe seismic waves. The amount of water spilling out during an earthquakeindicated the amount of shaking. In this lab, you will make a simple earthquake-detecting deviceand determine how it is affected by seismic waves.

    StrategyYou will model and observe the effects of seismic waves.You will infer how the energy released by an earthquake affects the amplitude, or height,

    of seismic waves.

    Materials baking panlarge ceramic or stainless steel bowlpitcher of tap waterdroppermetersticktextbookpaper towels

    Procedure1. Work with a partner. Place the baking pan

    on a flat surface such as a desk or counter.Set the bowl inside the pan.

    2. Pour water into the bowl from the pitcher.Fill the bowl to within 1 to 2 mm of therim.

    3. Using the dropper add water to the bowluntil the surface of the water arches abovethe rim (Figure 1). This is your earthquakedetector.

    4. Model an earthquake by having a partnerdrop a textbook near the detector from aheight of 2 cm. Observe what happens tothe water in the bowl. Do waves appear?Does water spill over? Record your observation in the Data and Observationssection. Add more water to the bowl withthe dropper if any spills out. Then repeatthis step, switching roles with your partner.

    5. Repeat step 4 several more times. Eachtime, you should increase the height atwhich you drop the book by several centimeters.

    6. If any water spills outside the baking pan,be sure to wipe it up with the paper towels.

    Volcanic Eruptions

    Some volcanic eruptions consist of violent explosions of gases and tephra, while others involvea relatively quiet flow of lava around a vent. The type of eruption that occurs depends on both thecomposition of the magma and the amount of gas trapped in it. Thick magma that is rich in silicatends to trap steam and other gases. The more gas in the magma, the greater the pressure thatbuilds up in the volcano. The tremendous pressure that builds in silica-rich magma is releasedwhen the volcano erupts explosively.

    By contrast, magma that contains less silica tends to be less explosive and flow more easily.This type of magma is rich in iron and magnesium and traps smaller amounts of gas. It producesbasaltic lava that flows from a volcano in broad, flat layers. In this lab, you will model bothbasaltic lava flows and explosive eruptions.

    ProcedurePart A—Modeling Explosive Eruptions1. Work in a group of five or six students. Put

    on your apron and goggles, and cover yourwork area with sheets of newspaper.

    2. Inflate six of the balloons. Put less air in someof the balloons than in others. You’ll need twosmall balloons, two medium, and two large.Leave the remaining balloons uninflated.

    3. In the coffee can, combine 1 L of plastermix with 2 L of water. Stir the mixturewith a wooden stirrer until the mixture issmooth. You should use a bit more waterthan the directions on the box suggest.Thinner plaster will be easier to work with.

    4. Pour about one-third of the mixture intoeach of the plastic tubs, leaving the final thirdin the can. Add several drops of food coloringto each container, and stir.

    You should end up with three colors of plas-ter: red, green, and blue. Do this step asquickly as possible since the plaster mix willbegin to harden.

    5. Using paintbrushes, coat the entire surface ofeach of the inflated balloons with a thin layerof plaster. Paint the two small balloons blue,the medium balloons green, and the largeballoons red. Using any color, paint a bandaround the center of each of the empty bal-loons, leaving the ends unpainted (Figure 1).Set the balloons on sheets of newspaper todry. If you spill any plaster while you arepainting, wipe it up with a damp sponge.

    6. While the plaster is drying, skip to Part Bof the procedure.

    7. To model the buildup of pressure insidemagma, try to inflate the empty balloons.What do you observe? Record your observa-tion in the Data and Observations section.

    8. Spread newspapers on an open area of thefloor. With the marker, draw a large X onthe center of the paper. To model anexplosive eruption, take one of the small,blue balloons and place it on the X. Popthe balloon by stepping on it. Leave thepieces of the plaster in place and pop thesecond small balloon in the same way.WARNING: Wear your safety gogglesthroughout this experiment.

    9. With the meterstick, measure the distancefrom the X to the piece of plaster thatlanded the farthest from it. This distancerepresents the radius of the debris field.Record this measurement in Table 1 theData and Observations section.

    10. Repeat step 8 using the medium balloons.Measure and record the distance from theX to the piece of green plaster that landedfarthest from it.

    11. Repeat step 8 using the large balloons.Measure and record the distance from theX to the piece of red plaster that landedfarthest from it.

    Part B—Modeling Basaltic Lava Flows1. Use the scissors to poke a hole near the

    center of the piece of cardboard. Widen thehole until it is just large enough for the capof a tube of toothpaste to fit through it.

    2. Make two stacks of books and place thecardboard on top of them so that the holeis suspended about 30 cm above your worksurface (Figure 2).

    3. Remove the cap from one of the tubes oftoothpaste. Stick the cap end of the tubethrough the hole so that the tube is uprightand just the mouth is sticking out the top ofthe cardboard. Model a basaltic lava flow byslowly squeezing out the contents of the tube.

    Figure 2

    4. Measure the height and diameter of your“lava” flow and record your measurementsin Table 2 in the Data and Observationssection.

    5. To model additional eruptions, repeat steps3 and 4 using the other two tubes of tooth-paste to add to your “lava” flow.

    6. Return to step 7 of Part A.

    The New Madrid Fault

    Of all the states, California faces the highestrisk of earthquakes. This is due, in part, to amajor break in Earth’s crust that runs throughthe state for approximately 1,050 km. Thisfracture, the San Andreas Fault, was responsi-ble for the killer San Francisco earthquake in1906 and countless others since.

    Earthquakes in MissouriBut a series of three earthquakes between

    December 16, 1811, and February 7, 1812, tookplace not in California, but in Missouri, alonga quake zone called the New Madrid Fault. Allthree measured 8.0 on the Richter scale, mak-ing them the largest American earthquakesever. The quakes were so strong that tremorswere felt as far east as Boston and Washington,D.C. Aftershocks continued for more than ayear. Besides devastating 7,800 to 13,000 km2

    of land, the earthquake caused the MississippiRiver to reverse its direction temporarily andbegin to flow upstream. The earthquake alsocaused the Mississippi to permanently changeits course and create new lakes and islandswhere there hadn’t been any before.

    The New Madrid Fault is 70 km wide, 300 kmlong, and is located near New Madrid, Missouri.

    It runs primarily through Missouri, Arkansas,Kentucky, and Tennessee. If an earthquake hap-pened, it could affect up to 17 states surroundingthe fault zone. For a long time, geologists thoughtthat a New Madrid earthquake was likely to happen only every 1,000 years or so.

    Earthquake ConferenceUnfortunately, earthquakes can and do hap-

    pen anytime, anywhere. Scientists are still unableto predict them, so they’re constantly working onways to prepare for an earthquake and to mini-mize the damage to lives and property. In the fallof 2000, representatives from 26 earthquake-prone states met at the first-ever National Earth-quake Risk Management Conference. Theydiscussed, among other things, the New MadridFault and the need to make people aware thatearthquakes don’t just happen in California.

    Scientists predict that a New Madrid earth-quake could result in $20 billion in damages.With increased land development and urbansprawl hitting all the communities located onthe New Madrid Fault, it’s likely the humancost would be very high as well.

    1. Where could you find information on earthquake preparedness? Is this something you andyour family need to think about? Give at least two reasons.

    2. When the New Madrid earthquakes of 1811–1812 hit, there were very few people or buildingsin the area. Now scientists predict that a similar earthquake would cause damage from St. Louisto Memphis, causing billions of dollars in property damage and the loss of hundreds of lives.What effect would a New Madrid earthquake have on the land itself?

    3. List some preventive measures your school could take to prepare for an earthquake.

    Fire and Ice!

    1. Why does Iceland have so many volcanic eruptions?

    2. How is geothermal energy captured in Iceland?

    3. This type of energy is also called hydrothermal energy. Why do you think that is so?

    Iceland is a land of fire and ice. Volcanoes,hot springs, and glaciers create a landscape ofhot and cold contrasts. Every now and then, anearthquake shakes things up. The country islocated right over the spreading Mid-AtlanticRidge where the seafloor is tearing apart.

    A Volcano ZoneAs the Earth’s plates move apart in a

    spreading ridge, fissures form. A long fissurezone with many shield volcanoes on its sidesruns right through the southeastern andsouthwestern parts of Iceland. This zone isabout 70 kilometers long. This has createdmany problems for the people of Iceland,since the volcanic eruptions often cause a lotof damage. Some cities have been damagedbecause they were built near what were erro-neously thought to be inactive volcanoes.

    Because much of Iceland is under ice, manysmall volcanic eruptions aren’t seen, but theystill melt a lot of water. The water is captured ina caldera, the center region of a volcano, whereit then spills out every three to four years.

    These water spills are called jökulhaups (yoh-kewl-owps) and can cause a great deal ofdestruction.

    Putting Volcanoes to UseThe people of Iceland have learned to live

    with their volcanoes. Iceland is one of themost effective countries of the world in capturing the geothermal energy of Earth andusing it to make electricity. When water seepsinto the cracks of the fissures, it is superheatedby magma. The water turns to steam andescapes through the top of the fissure as ageyser. This high-temperature steam is used torotate turbine blades. In turn, the turbinesproduce electricity for use by the people. Morethan 70 percent of the homes in Iceland areheated and lighted by geothermal energy.

    Iceland is a model for other countries whenit comes to geothermal power. Geothermalenergy is environmentally clean and will probably last a long time.

    Coming Up: Island UnderConstruction

    Hawaii is a favorite vacation spot for peopleall over the world. Many people enjoy its beaches and pleasant weather. You can visit itseight major islands: Nihau, Kauai, Oahu,Molokai, Lanai, Maui, Kahoolawe, and Hawaii.

    A New IslandThere is another “island” that is fairly large,

    but most people have never heard of it. It iscalled Loihi, a Hawaiian word that means“long.” However, you cannot make a reserva-tion to stay at a hotel there, because Loihi isbeneath the ocean. It is about 20 miles fromthe southeast coast of the island of Hawaii andsits on the same hot spot as Mauna Loa andKilauea, two active Hawaiian volcanoes.

    Like the other Hawaiian Islands, Loihi isvolcanic. But unlike most of the other islands,it is still being formed. Currently, the island ismore than 3,000 m high. It has about 969 mto go before it reaches sea level. If it keepsgrowing at its current rate, it should becomevisible above the surface of the ocean some-time in the next 10,000 to 100,000 years.

    Scientists Discover LoihiLoihi is a volcano that is a seamount, or

    sea mountain. For a long time, scientists knew it existed, but believed it was extinct.

    They discovered Loihi was actually relativelyyoung and active in 1970, when an expeditionof scientists went to investigate a swarm ofearthquakes that had occurred there. Swarm isa term used to describe a large amount ofearthquake activity. Undersea photographs ofLoihi showed new-looking lava formations.Actual samples of the lava had a glass-likecrust, which confirmed the lava was new. Keepin mind that “new” in scientific, or geologic,terms can mean as long as several hundredyears ago or as recently as yesterday.

    Loihi EarthquakesIn the summer of 1996, the largest swarm of

    earthquakes ever recorded for the islandsoccurred at Loihi. About 4,000 earthquakesshook the seamount during a two-month periodthat summer. Once again, scientists went to Loihito study the situation. Diving down to the islandin a vessel called a submersible, they collectedsamples of lava. By using radiometry to date thelava, they found that the volcano had erupted atleast once, and possibly twice, that year.

    Scientists have been monitoring Loihi usingdevices such as a hydrophone, a microphonethat works underwater. The evidence the scien-tists are collecting shows that Loihi continuesto erupt and grow.

    1. How did scientists recognize that Loihi was still growing?

    2. Why do you think Loihi is sometimes called a submarine island?

    3. If Loihi reaches sea level in 10,0000 years, what would its average rate of growth per year be?What would its average rate of growth per year be if it reaches sea level in 100,000 years?

    4. Do you think other new islands are possible in the Hawaiian chain? Explain.
