Hypothesis
Hypotheses should make specific, testable predictions and are often in IF-THEN form, e.g., “if x is changed, then y will occur.” A hypothesis answers the question, “What is the point of the experiment”?
Write a paragraph describing the approach or strategy used to test the hypothesis. It should include what was tested and how it was tested.
Procedures
See Experiment Instructions .
Results
State the most important numerical, graphical or qualitative results obtained from performing the experiment. If there is a data table, include it here.
Uncertainty & Error
Discuss sources of uncertainty and error. Sources of error include modeling errors and experimental errors, both systematic and random . For computer simulations, discuss real-world sources of uncertainty or error that were not simulated.
Conclusion/Summary
Discuss how the experimental results support rejecting or accepting the hypothesis. Discuss the relevance of uncertainties/errors to these conclusions. Propose experiment improvements and/or future directions for experimentation.
Application
Discuss at least one real-world application of the physics concept(s) tested in the experiment and include a discussion of the experiment-specific question highlighted near the top of this document.
The topic of this week is This physics experiment consists of two physics simulations that will help in understanding density and its relation to buoyance, states of matter, and temperature.
Density, the ratio of mass to volume or weight to volume , is an important property for many reasons, including buoyancy, which is explored in this physics simulation.
