BEAUTIFUL EARTH

mother


තිබිරි ගෙය පුරාවට
පැතිරි ගිය නුබෙ හඩ
වැකුනු කල දෙසවනට
සතුටු විය මගෙ සිත
දසමසක් පුරාවට

දරා සිටියත් නුබව
කිසි දිනෙක දෑනුනෙ නෑ
නුබව බරක් ලෙස
නුබෙ මොලොකටි අත් අල්ලා
මගෙ තුරුලට නුබව අරගෙන
ඒ පලමු කිරි බිද
ආදරයෙන් දුන් මම නුබෙ අම්මා

Evaporation

evaporation is the process where a liquid in this case water,changes from its liquid state to a gaseous state. liquid water become water vopor.although lower air pressure help promote evoporation.during the water cycle some of the oceans and fresh water bodies such as lokes and rivers is warmed by the sun and evoporation on temperature is primary factor.

earth

earth is unique partly because of it distance from the sun. it is just the right distance to receive the heat that is needed to support life.earth also has water and oxygen two other necessities  for plant and animal life.earth takes 365 1/4days to complete 1 orbite around the sun.earth rotates on an imaginary axcil which is call axis.this axis runs through the center of the earth from the north pole to south pole.a 23 1/2 angle. earth rotates on its axis making a complete rotation every 24 hours 1 day.earth rotation create day night as earth rotates part of it is turned away from the sun.   .

සැබැවු සිහිනය



සිගිති මොලොකැටි පුතේ නුඹෙ ඔය
පුංචි දැසින් ‍ලොව දකින කල
නුඹෙ සියුමැලි සිනා අතරින්
මමත් ඉපදුනි මවක් විදිහට

woterfalls

Bambarakanda Ella

Sri Lanka is blessed with over one hundred waterfalls. The tallest is the Bambarakande Falls which cascades down 263 metres like liquid light. It is only four miles away from the Colombo-Bandarawela road in a forest glade, but it is not visited often, though well worth the trip.

Bambarakande is taller than the famous Diyaluma falls which is only 220 metres but thought to be the tallest waterfall in Sri Lanka. The Diyaluma or Diya Haluma collects its water from the Poonagala Oya in the vicinity of Koslanda and Wellawaya. Located six miles from Koslanda and 13 miles from Wellawaya, its waters originate from the Mahakande Pass in Koslanda. You can see this waterfall if you stop a while on your way to Haputale and detour.

Due to the geological formation of Sri Lanka, the central highlands are surrounded by peneplains, plateaus and valleys. Rainfall sends a large volume of water hurtling down the precipitous edges of the highland mass. The up thrust millions of years ago has caused several peneplains to form, the highest being well over 6000 ft. It is in this area that the water is collected when there are showers and flows down along tributaries down the mountain slopes
