5.P.2.2 Remediation Flashcard (Schoolnet)

Front

What happens to the mass of an object when it is cut into smaller pieces?

Back

The mass remains the same; it does not change when an object is cut into smaller pieces.

Front

What is the definition of mass?

Back

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in kilograms or grams.

Front

If you tear a sheet of paper into pieces, how does the total mass of the pieces compare to the original sheet?

Back

The total mass of the pieces is the same as the mass of the whole sheet.

Front

What is the principle of conservation of mass?

Back

The principle states that mass cannot be created or destroyed in a closed system; it can only change forms.

Front

How do you calculate the combined mass of multiple objects?

Back

Add the individual masses of each object together to find the total mass.

Front

What is the mass of an object if it is made up of several parts?

Back

The mass of the object is the sum of the masses of all its parts.

Front

What happens to the weight of a solution when a solute dissolves in a solvent?

Back

The weight of the solution remains the same because the mass of the solute and solvent does not change.

Front

If a swing set has a mass of 235 kg and the chains have a mass of 35 kg, how do you find the mass of the seats?

Back

Subtract the mass of the chains from the total mass of the swing set.

Front

What is the mass of an object if it is equal to the sum of its components?

Back

The mass of the object is equal to the total mass of all its components combined.

Front

How do you determine the mass of an unknown object if you know the mass of similar objects?

Back

Use the known masses to set up an equation and solve for the unknown mass.
