Scientific Method
Matter
Variables
Mass/Weight
Volume/Density
100
Info. gathered with the five senses.
What is an Observation?
100
The amount of mass in an object.
What is Matter?
100
They are factors that could change during an experiment.
What are Variables?
100
The amount of matter in an object.
What is Mass?
100
The amount of space an object takes up.
What is Volume?
200
What you do when you want to learn and must be measureble or testable
What is a Question?
200
The brick has more matter and the sponge has way less
What is the difference between a brick and a sponge?
200
They help you understand different methods in science.
What do variables do?
200
The gravitational force of an object.
What is Weight?
200
Length times,width times,highth,equals,area.
What's the method to calculate volume?
300
An educated guess.
What is a Hypothesis?
300
No, but it has something to do with volume though.
Does the metric system have anything to do with matter?
300
Something that is tested or changed.
What are Independent Variables?
300
Mass are particles that makes up space in an object while weight it tells you how much that mass makes up.
How are mass and weight different?
300
The amount of matter in a given amount of space.
What is Density?
400
When you test your hypothesis and gather data.
What is an Experiment?
400
Yes, it is because it takes up space.
Is air matter?
400
What is observed or measured. Also the effect caused by the Independent Variables. Lastly the data.
What are dependent variables?
400
If you weigh more you have a less chance of floating on the moon. Also it does much more if you weigh less.
How does weight affect earths gravity?
400
It is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.
How do you calculate Density?
500
Organize data and look for patterns and trends.
What do you do when you Analyze Results?
500
Because each one takes up space.
How is matter and Volume similar?
500
What stays the same and is used for comparison.
What are Controlled Variables?
500
They are both dependent on the amount of particles of matter.
What are similarities of weight and mass?
500
Solids=gLcm squared Liquids=gLmL Gases=gLmL
What are the standard units of measure for Density?
M
e
n
