How are you today?
QUARTER 3 – WEEK 2 – DAY 1
Let us review
Use the following words in a sentence:
Flow volcano stickiness
Liquid honey viscous
Water lava slow
Faster viscosity cooking oil
DESCRIBE THE LIQUID
OBJECTIVE
Discuss the different factors
that affect the viscosity
of magma.
Let’s do this!
Using a drinking straw, blow
some air from the bottom of
the liquid. Blow it harder.
Observe.
Let’s do this!
Compare the movement of
the liquid as the bubbles
move on the surface.
What does this activity tell
you?
Take note!
Different liquids have different
viscosities. If the liquid represents the
magma, then its rate of flow depends on
several factors. In the same way, you
have seen in this activity that the amount
of gas affects the viscosity of the liquid.
Let us learn further!
Viscosity is the property of the
material’s resistance to flow. The
more viscous and thicker the
magma is, the greater is its
resistance to flow.
Let us learn further!
Factors Affecting the Viscosity of the Magma
Let us learn further!
Let us learn further!
Let us Evaluate!
What is the relationship between
VISCOSITY and…
a.) the temperature of magma.
b.) the silica content of magma.
c.) the amount of gases
contained in the magma.
Were we able to attain the
Objective for today?
Discuss the different factors
that affect the viscosity
of magma.
Thank you very much!
Have a nice day!
