A scientist is measuring how giving more time on tests increases the scores up to a certain point, but after that point, the scores begin to drop again. Name the independent variable in this study.

What is the time given on tests.

300

Describe the difference between an intensive property and an extensive property.

What is an intensive property being independent of how much sample there is, while an extensive property depends on how much of the sample is present.

Determine whether you would have a higher weight on the moon and why.

What is no, as gravity is lower on the moon than on the earth.

What is 86p, 92e, 142n?

400

Compare and contrast fission and fusion with three points for each.

What are fission being unnatural, creating energy and a lot of waste, and occurs with PU and U, while fusion is natural, creates more energy and less waste than fission, and occurs with H. Both create energy and waste, are nuclear reactions, and occur in the nucleus.
