100
a series of steps followed to solve problems including collecting data, formulating a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis, and stating conclusions
What is the scientific method?
100
anything that has mass and takes up space
What is matter?
100
amount of matter in an object
What is mass?
100
amount of space an object takes up
What is volume?
100
measure of amount of mass in an given volume
What is density?
200
1. Question 2. Collect Information 3. Form Hypothesis 4. Test Hypothesis 5. Observe & Collect Data 6. Draw Conclusions
What are the steps to the scientific method?
200
measure of gravitational force on an object
What is weight?
200
You can take measurements calculate using a formula: l x w x h.
How can you find the volume of a object with defined shape?
200
Find the mass and the volume then divide the mass by the volume.
How is density determined?
300
The many ways in which scientists study the natural world and propose explanations based on the evidence they gather.
What is scientific inquiry?
300
It is measured in grams.
What is the unit of measurement for mass?
300
You can use water displacement.
How can you find the volume of a object with irregular shape?
300
It is 1 g/cm cubed.
What is the density of water?
400
1. Posing questions 2. Developing a hypothesis 3. Designing an experiment 4. Collecting and interpreting data 5. Draw conclusions 6. Communicate
What are the steps of scientific inquiry?
400
It is measured in newtons.
What is the unit of measurement for weight?
400
You can use a graduated cylinder.
How can you find the volume of a liquid?
400
Anything with a density more than the density of the liquid will sink, anything with a density less than the density of the liquid will float.
How can you use density to tell if an object floats or sinks?
500
A way of learning about the natural world.
What is science?
500
Weight can change depending on the location, and mass doesn't change unless the amount of matter changes.
What is the difference between mass and weight?
