Chromatography Experiment!

Separating colours by pigments: 

Aim: To separate colours by pigments.

Hypothesis: I think that the colours will go up and show different colours, and I think that brighter colours will show fewer colours and that darker colours will show more. 

Purple felt results: The colours spread out a lot more than the other ones, I think this happened because of the paper that we used was folded a lot shorter. Which made it absorb more water than the other ones. The colours that appeared were; Purple, pink, a bit of black and a very light blue.

Black felt results: The black felt separated into different colours very interestingly, it showed almost all the colours, the colours that appeared were: Black, yellow, grey, purple, pink, blue and orange. 

Discussion: The first experiment that we did was purple, it showed fewer colours because it was brighter. It showed; Purple, pink, black, and blue. Our second experiment which was black showed a lot more colours than the first. It showed more because it was a darker colour, it showed; Black, yellow, grey, purple, pink, blue and orange. 

Alaskan Tsunami - Size Comparison!

This week for our hurumanu 3, on the chaos part, we have made a bar graph about the Alaskan Tsunami. Also known as Lituya Bay Megatsunami, it is the biggest tsunami known to men. Anyways we had to compare the tsunami to famous towering landmarks, which can be seen on the graph that I have made. While making this graph, I thought about what it would be like in a situation where there is a tsunami this big. What I found new ways that the Sky Tower was about the same size as the Eiffel Tower, with only 4 meters short. Also, what would you feel if you saw a tsunami as big as the Alaskan Tsunami? Anyways here is the finished graph.
