Science Concept Map

Scientific Endeavor

Design experiments using steps in the Scientific Method as a guideline.

Make quantitative measurements taking into consideration accuracy caused by zero errors and parallax errors.

Physical Quantities

Physical quantity is a quantity that can be measured. It consists a numerical value ad a unit. This is how force is measured.

3 Types of physical quantities

Length (Metre)

Mass (Kilogram)

Time (Second)

Pressure

Pressure is a derived quantity and it can be found by the equation, pressure = force (newton) over area (cm3)

Forces

It is a strength or energy as an attribute of physical action or movement.

Pressure

It is a continuous physical force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it.
