What is the primary focus of Chapter 2?

• Learning about the solar system

• Understanding the pod's change in direction

• Studying the effects of gravity

• Exploring new planets

What is required to change the velocity of an object?

• An experiment

• A prediction

• A hypothesis

• A force

How does the direction of force affect an object's velocity?

• It determines how the velocity changes

• It has no effect

• It depends on the object's size

• It changes the object's color

What can a stronger force cause?

• A smaller change in velocity

• No change in velocity

• A greater change in velocity

• A change in color

What helps us infer the result of a particular cause?

• Understanding a cause and effect relationship

• Guessing

• Ignoring the data

• Changing the experiment

What did Dr. Anna Gonzalez's letter reveal about the thrusters?

• They were too strong

• They were too weak

• They exerted the same strength force as other missions

• They were not working

What does the warm-up activity involve?

• Brainstorming ideas based on a letter

• Physical exercise

• Drawing diagrams of pods

• Calculating the speed of light

Could the number of asteroid samples affect the pod's velocity change?

• Only if the samples are large

• No, asteroid samples are irrelevant

• Only during full moons

• Yes, it's a possibility

What is the new mystery in Chapter 2?

• The disappearance of a pod

• The pod moving differently despite similar thruster force

• Finding new asteroids

• Developing a new thruster technology

Why is it important to discuss and predict in science?

• To confirm our biases

• To make learning fun

• To enhance understanding and explore different perspectives

• To finish experiments quickly
