What is the formula for Volume

Length x Width x Height

100

What is the Formula for Density?

Mass / Volume

100

What is the difference that decides whether an objects floats or sinks?

Whether the objects density is more or less than the density of water?

100

What is the difference between the release point and distance traveled?

The distance traveled will always be 5 less that the release point.

100

What are the 4 types of friction?

Static, Rolling, Sliding, and Fluid friction

200

Block B has a length of 2.5 what is the volume? Round to nearest tenth.

15.6 cm3 

200

If the mass of block B is 19 grams what is the density?

1.2 g/cm3

200

Will block A float or sink?

It will float.

200

If the release point is 50 cm how far will the golf ball travel?

The ball will travel 45 cm.

200

When was the first asteroid discovered and who was it discovered by?

It was discovered by Italian priest and astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi in 1801.

300

Block A has a length of 3.5 what is the volume? Round to the nearest tenth.

42.9 cm3

300

IF block A has a mass of 35 grams what is the Density?

.8 g/cm3

300

Will Block B float or sink?

It will sink.

300

If the ball travels 26 cm what was the release point?

the release point was 31 cm.

300

What is the difference between yeast and hydra?

Both reproduce asexually through budding but yeast is a single celled organism and hydra is multi-cellular.

400

If an object has a length of 9 cm a width of 8 cm and a height of .5 cm what is the volume?

36 cm3

400

If an object has a mass of 450 grams and a volume of 2.5 what is the density?

180 g/cm3

400

Will the object from "Density: 500" float? 

No because the objects density of 1.1 g/cm3 is greater than the density of water

400

What will the graph look like if the Release point is the x axis and the distance traveled is the y axis.

It will be a diagonal line that doesn't go through the origin.

400

Explain why an object will float or sink in terms of balance and unbalanced forces?

* This is a new student issued exam question

If an object sinks it's because the force of downward force of gravity acting on the object is greater than the upward force of water. If an object float its because the upward force of the water is equal to or greater than the downward force of gravity acting on the object.

500

If an object has a volume of 3000 cm and a length that is 2 times the sum of of the width and height what are the measurements of the object? Hint: Each answer is a multiple of 5 between 0 and 50.

 Height = 15

Width =5

Length = 40

500

If an object has a volume of 2006 and a mass that is 110% of it what its density?

1.1 g/cm3

500

If the object from Volume : 400 has a mass of 24 will it sink or float?

It will float.

The volume of the object was 36 cm3

500

17x+16x=165 If (17x) is the release point and (16x) is the distance traveled what are the two measurements?

Release point : 85

Distance traveled:80

500

How does the skin function as a part of the human excretory system

The release of sweat allows skin to function as a part of the human excretory system as it allows the pores to be another route to rid the body of unnecessary or unwanted substances.
