Intro to Physical Science

The standard unit for measuring volume is

• mL

• liter

• gram

• cm³

When creating a graph of data the independent variable is usually on the

• x axis

• y axis

• either axis it depends on the user

One benefit of using a standard system of measurement is

• the standard system is commonly used in the United States

• the standard system makes it easier to communicate worldwide

• the standard system is based on multiples of 100

• the standard system has been around for hundreds of years

A beaker contains 0.32 liters of water. What is the volume of water in deciliters?

• 3200

• 320

• 32

• 3.2

A box is 10 cm long, 6 cm wide and 2 cm high. What is the volume of the box?

• 18 cm³

• 120 cm³

• 180 cm³

• 12 cm³

When designing an experiment, the first step is to

• analyze data

• list procedures

• state a hypothesis

• state the problem or question

Observations that you can see, hear, smell, taste and touch are

• Qualitative observations

• Quantitative observations

• Analytical observations

• 5 senses observations

A standard for comparison in and experiment

• the constants

• the control group

• the hypothesis

• the dependent variable
