You will learn about three sensor types— earthquake, deep water, and shallow water—and where to place them in the Indian Ocean region in order to send the people of Sri Lanka an accurate warning when a dangerous tsunami is traveling toward their shores. Your warning system must give people the greatest amount of time to move to safety, have few or no false alarms, and be low in cost. Defining the Problem: Summarise your understanding of the project by answering the following questions. You may need to review resources used throughout the unit as well as additional sources to help you respond to the questions. Inquiring and Designing  1. Based on the problem you are trying to solve, construct a scientific question to be tested in your scientific investigation in the space below: (Criteria Bi) ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ 2. Based on the information you have been read about Tsunami’s and Tsunami alert systems, outline a testable hypothesis that will guide your investigation during this internship (Criteria Bii) ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ 3.
