In this density graph worksheet, students graph data displayed in a chart. Students also calculate the density of each metal shown in the graph. Students answer questions about which detail is more dense.

Young scholars conduct experiments to determine if length, mass, or starting angle has any effect on the rate of a pendulum's swing. They also conduct an experiment online to determine if gravitational force plays a role in the swing. ...

Students have the opportunity to use model-building as a way to help comprehend the forces and phenomena at work in the world around them. They describe gravity as a universal force that pulls everything toward the center of the earth....

Young scholars investigate the force of gravity and how it effects different objects that are put into acceleration when applied the experiment of free falling. They drop different objects that have a variety of masses and some that...

Students assess human impact on water quality. They determine how the force of friction retards motion. Pupils describe and measure quantities that characterize moving objects and their interactions within a system: Time, Distance,...

Students comrehend that water displacement is a simple way to measure the volume of a solid object. They pour water into a graduated cylinder or measuring cup and its volume is read and recorded. Pupils the volume of an object by...

Students observe a demonstration presented by the teacher covering different types of energy. They participate in an experiment where they study numerous physics vocabulary words and visit websites that demonstrate examples of these...

Students observe earth science by examining results from an experiment. In this buoyancy lesson, students practice floating different items in two different liquids and identify why certain objects will float and others sink. Students...

Students explore physics by conducting a class experiment. In this density instructional activity, students examine a list of items and discuss whether they will sink or float and then determine their density. Students examine the...

In this density laboratory learning exercise, students complete 2 prior knowledge questions, then use the "Density Laboratory Gizmo" to complete several activities, answering short answer questions when finished.

For this mobile worksheet, students determine the mass of the missing pieces of a mobile by using the mass of the other pieces and the length of the crossbars. This worksheet has 3 problems to solve.

In this power worksheet, 12th graders solve four problems including calculating work done by friction, determining work done by gravity and the calculating the minimum horsepower needed to save a ship that is sinking.

In this momentum worksheet, students will complete two fill in the blank statements on inertia and momentum. Then students will compare the momentum of a bowling ball and baseball with differing masses and velocities in 3 short answer...

In this biology learning exercise, students use the website given to become familiar with the equipment of a lab. The activity involves a link to a virtual laboratory. Then they determine an objects mass and volume by placing it in a...

Students discuss situations when it is useful to know exact weight of object as opposed to estimated weight, estimate weight of various items, weigh them on scale using ounces and pounds, and compare their weights on Guess Your Best...

Students use graph paper to construct a graph and determine the slope of a straight line. They determine the weight (mass) of paper clips with a pan balance. Pupils weigh an unknown number of paper clips, and to interpret the graph to...

Students comprehend that density depends on the type of material and not on the amount of material. They use a spoonfl of table salt and a box of table salt and have the same density. Pupils comprehend that density is calculated by...

Students use reference skills to locate information about the periodic table. They identify elements by name, atomic number, atomic mass, symbol and properties. Students use mathematical processes to find the number of protons,electrons...

Students participate in several density lab activities in order to clarify the misconceptions that solids sink and liquids float. Students work with triple beam balances to find mass of objects to calculate density.

Students review the relationship between mass and volume is constant for a pure substance under standard conditions. They complete mass and volume worksheets using formulas for calculating density.

Students manipulate a model of a wave in order to solve the wave equation in 1 dimension. By using a model of a wave on a string the student is able to change the tension, length, and mass of the string as well as fix either end of the...

Young scholars participate in a qualitative discussion of the distinction between weight and mass, followed by a description of astronaut mass measurements in a zero-g environment.

Students participate in Density Discoveries, which is a hands-on learning opportunity for students to find the mass, volume, and density of solid matter.
