Decide whether each statement describes mass or weight.

Biology
2 answers:
horrorfan [7]3 years ago

The answers are as follows:

1. Weight

2.  Mass

3. Mass

4. Weight

5. Mass

6. Weight

Here's why:

Mass is how much matter an object has. It is a scalar quantity. Kilogram is a unit of mass. Gravity has nothing to do with mass. That is why no matter where you are in the universe, you have the same mass even when you are not on Earth.

Weight on the other, is the gravitational force on an object. So it changes, depending on the force gravity applies on it. On Earth for example, the acceleration of objects due to gravity is 9.8m/s². When you multiply it to the mass, you will get the weight which would have the unit kg.m/s², which is also N or Newtons.

Weight is measured in Newtons, mass is measured in kilograms, mass does not change when gravity changes; weight does, mass is the amount of matter in an object, and weight is a gravitational force

Explain the relationship between three aspects of science: hypothesis, research/experimentation, and theory.
Luda [366]
Hypothesis: It is basically a prediction of what an experiment will do. You are making a scientific guess to what is going to happen. After you make a hypothesis you will perform a experiment to test your hypothesis and to see whether your hypothesis was right or not. If it is then you are good to go (move on to make a data) if not then you have to do the project over again. 

Research/ Experiment: Usually researching and experimenting are different kind of things but experimenting is basically what i said in the Hypothesis area, you are testing to see if your hypothesis is right or wrong. Usually researching means you are finding a source for your project. (Using source is a main thing when creating a project).

Last by not least theory: Theory is different from predictions or hypothesis. A theory is a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained. Example: My theory for the big bang theory is... and you put your theory in it.

How does an enzyme influence a chemical reaction?
seropon [69]

Answer:

It speeds up the reaction rate

Explanation:

Enzymes are biological catalysts. Catalysts lower the activation energy for reactions. The lower the activation energy for a reaction, the faster the rate. Thus enzymes speed up reactions by lowering activation energy.
