This can send astronauts to space and be used more than once.
What is a space shuttle?

The steps are: First, read the 100s beam, then the 10s, then the 1s beam. (Example: 200 g, 50 g, and 2.3 g would equal 252.3 grams.)
How do you read a triple beam balance?
200

What are examples of chemical changes?
200
These are the 7 types of energy.
What are Atomic/Nuclear, Chemical, Heat, Electrical, Light, Mechanical, and Sound?
200
These types of forces cause movement.
What is an unbalance force?
200
These are the two factors that determine how strong the gravitational attraction between two objects is.
What are mass and distance apart?

Purpose/Question, Research, Hypothesis, Experiment, Analysis, Conclusion
What are the steps of the Scientific Method?
300
A precipitate.
What is a solid that forms from two liquids being mixed together?
300
This is why fossil fuels, like petroleum, are considered non-renewable resources of energy.
What is once it runs out, it is gone?
300
An example would be applying 500 N of force on a object and it doesn't move.
What is doing NO work?
300
These are the 5 physical layers of the Earth in order from outer most to inner most layer.
What is lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, and inner core?
400
triple beam balance and graduated cylinder
What are the tools you need to calculate density?
400
This is the difference between a compound and an element.

500
The mechanical energy from your finger turning on the switch transforms into chemical energy that goes through the batteries, then transforms into electrical energy to go through the wires, and finally into light and heat energy as it goes into the light bulb.
What are the energy transformations that occur when turning on a flashlight?
500
On a distance vs. time graphs, this would indicate an object is standing still.
What is a straight, horizontal line?
