What is Matter?
Anything that has mass and takes up space.
What is Kinetic energy? What is Potential energy?
Kinetic energy is motion energy.
Potential energy is stored energy.

During this part of the scientific method, you will state if your hypothesis is wrong or right and share it with the world.
Report
What are the three variables?
Independent, Dependent, Controlled
What are the three states matter can be found in?
solid, liquid, gas
The amount of kinetic energy depends on an object's....?
What are the SOAR 4?
Be respectful, be responsible, be safe, and be kind
During this part of the scientific method, you will design something to prove if your hypothesis is correct.
Experiment
Describe each variable
Independent: changed
Dependent: measured
Controlled: stays the same
What is it called when a gas turns into a liquid?
Condensation
The more potential energy something has depends on what...?
Where is Mr. Patao from?
Philippines
How is a Hypothesis written?
Using an IF and THEN statement.
Smithers thinks that a special juice will increase the productivity of workers. He creates two groups of 50 workers each and assigns each group the same task (in this case, they're supposed to staple a set of papers). Group A is given the special juice to drink while they work. Group B is not given the special juice. After an hour, Smithers counts how many stacks of papers each group has made. Group A made 1,587 stacks, Group B made 2,113 stacks.
Identify the three variables?
Independent Variable: Smither’s special Juice
Dependent Variable: Productivity of workers
Controlled: Group that didn’t drink the juice
What is it called when a liquid turns into a gas?
Evaporation
Energy cannot be created or destroyed but is can be....?
Transferred to another object or changed into another form of energy

What is the scientific method?
The steps you take to answer a question within science.
Homer notices that his shower is covered in a strange green slime. His friend Barney tells him that coconut juice will get rid of the green slime. Homer decides to check this out by spraying half of the shower with coconut juice. He sprays the other half of the shower with water. After 3 days of "treatment" there is no change in the appearance of the green slime on either side of the shower
Identify the three variables.
Independent Variable: Use of coconut juice
Dependent Variable: Amount of green slime
Control Group: The part of the shower that is sprayed with water.
Name all the parts of an atom.
Nucleus, Protons, Neutrons, Electrons.
