ruler
2
A hypothesis is:
Prediction
data
Conclusion
testable question
3
What is most likely to happen when a force acts on a moving object?
The object will either speed up or slow down
The mass of the object will change
4
What changes when the pull of gravity changes? (ex: you visit another planet)
The color of your hair
Your mass
Your weight
All of the above
5
The amount of matter in any object is its
Volume
Size
Mass
Weight
6
Friction can...
all of the above
stop motion
slow motion
create heat
7
The first step in the Scientific Method:
Make a testable question
Write a conclusion about results
Collect data
Do experiment
8
Scientists use the Scientific Method to explore the world around us:
True
False
9
A force is defined as
any push or pull
a pull
Luke Skywalker's greatest gift
a push
10
The tendency of an object to stay in motion once in motion or to stay at rest once at rest is
unbalanced forces
balanced forces
inertia
motion
11
Writing a conclusion is not very important
true
false
12
To win a tug of war, your team has to create
A balanced force
Gravity
An unbalanced force
Inertia
13
If you kick a soccer ball as hard as you can across a field, it will
fly up into the atmosphere
slow down and come to a stop due to friction
stay where it is... gravity!
14

origin
spot
position
axis
15

False
True
16
What unit do you use to measure force?
Newton
Pounds

17
When conducting an experiment you should only change ONE variable to have a fair test:
True
False
18
The constant variables in an experiment:
What stays the same
is the one thing you change
19
A force that draws objects to the Earth and each other is called....
momentum
inertia
gravity
force
20
A force that can create motion is called
a motion force
all of the above
an unbalanced force
a balanced force
21
A box of tissues and a box of puppies are pushed with the same force. What happens?
The tissues move farther because they have less mass.
The puppies move farther because they have more mass.
22
Why do scientists complete several trials of their experiment before they analyze the results?
To prove that their hypothesis is correct
To collect evidence to support their claim
To prove that they’re the best
23
What force may keep you from lifting a box upward?
gravity
magnetism
push
friction
