Question | Answer |
Capacity | The greatest amount of fluid a container can hold |
Line of best fit | shows the trend of data in a graph; it tries to average the data in a graph |
Density | Measure of the amount of mass oer volume |
Volume | The amount of space an object takes up |
Mass | The amount of matter in an am=bject |
Density expression | D= _m_ v |
dependent variable | The information learned during an experiment. It can be measured and is shown on the y-axis |
Two coordinate graph | A graph showing the relationship between two sets of data consists of two axes, the x-axis and the y-axis |
Independent variable | the information known at the beginning of an experiment and might effect the outcome |
What variables might effect the number of passengers (pennies) a paper cup boat can hold? | Where the pennies are placed in the where the pennies are placed in the cup Water movement Size of the cup |
Is there a relationship between the capacity of lifeboats and the number of passengers they hold? | Yes, the greater the capacity, the greater number of passengers they can hold. |
How are you able to predict the number of passengers the number of passengers a new boat would hold? | Know the capacity and then go up on the graph until you hit the line of best fit. Then look to the Y-axis to see the # of passengers. |
