  34. 1. LIST AND DESCRIBE THE STEPS IN THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD.

  35. Problem – what is it you want to findResearch – what is already knownHypothesis – your guess at the correct answerExperiment – test your hypothesisConclusions – was your hypothesis correct or incorrect

  36. 3. NAME THE FUNDAMENTAL UNITS USED IN MECHANICS AND TELL, IN GENERAL, HOW EACH IS DEFINED.

  37. meter – the distance light travels in a tiny fraction of a second.kilogram – the mass of the standard kilogram (the only measure that is still a natural object)second – a certain number of vibrations of a cesium-133 atom
