AM #4 • 6.2 km = ? M • The mass of an object is 25g and the volume is 5ml. What is the density? • Compare and Contrast accuracy and precision. • What is a controlled experiment?
Answers • 6200m • 5g/ml • Accuracy – exactness of your measure and skill (rounding to nearest .01) Precision – ability to replicate - following the directions exactly as they are written every time. • A controlled experiment is one where one variable remains the same (called the control). This is like a point of reference for the experiment. Other variables may be changed (independent variables).
AM # 5 • Compare a dependent and an independent variable. • Differentiate between a theory to a law. • Compare quantitative and qualitative data. • 6783.49 cl = ? dkl
Answers • An independent variable is what you change in an experiment. A dependent variable is the result of changing the independent variable. • A theory cannot be concretely proven. A law states a fact. • Quantitative – numerical data; Qualitative – details (color, condition, etc.) • 6.78349dkl
