Distance Time Graphs Definitions * Speed: Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to "how fast an object is moving." Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. A fast-moving object has a high speed and covers a relatively large distance in a short amount of time. * Velocity: Velocity is a vector quantity that refers to "the rate at which an object changes its position." When evaluating the velocity of an object‚ one must keep track of direction. It would not

The usage of graphs are essential in the illustration and comprehension of statistical output. They type of graphs used depends on the author and the view they are trying to portrait. Graphs can be used to prove or disprove a theory based on its presentation. The Following graph is used as a visually depiction of a sample of grade school childern of whom an IQ exam was performed.

Introduction The reason of this experiment was to identify the properties and effects of osmosis. Osmosis can be defined as the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane. (Miller/Levine) Osmosis occurs when there is an area of higher and lower concentration. Osmosis is a type of diffusion. Diffusion is when molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of higher concentration. The three types of concentrations are hypotonic‚ hypertonic‚ and isotonic. When in comparison

water when no fish is present. Then‚ measure the water with fish in it‚ increasing by 2 every time. Record the amount of fish and dissolved oxygen in a chart. When about 20 fish is reached‚ stop recording and put all the data into a line graph. Using a line graph will help see any patterns between dissolved oxygen and number of fish. 4.

Biology GCSE Coursework: Osmosis in Potato Chips Skill Area P: Planning Aim: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato chip of a given size. Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solution’s molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially
