Scientific Process
The measurements and observations gathered from an experiment
What is data?
The ability to do work.
What is energy?
A gravitational force exerted on an object by a planet or moon; measured in newtons (N).

What is the independent variable?
All knowledge gained from experiments
What is science?
What is potential energy?
A measure of the amount of energy and work.
What is joules (J)?
This is what scientists use to find out what is already known about their question.
What is research?
What is an experiment?
The energy stored in an object as a result of its vertical position or height above the ground.
What is gravitational potential energy.
What is the acceleration of gravity?
In an experiment, this allows scientists to isolate one variable.
What is the constant?
What is a question?
Any change in position, speed, or state of matter due to force.
What is work?
