What we have learnt
- The scientific method involves an iterative process of observation, questioning, hypothesizing, and testing.
- Understanding foundational physics concepts is essential for effective scientific inquiry.
- Reflecting on scientific learning and its impact fosters personal growth and enhances critical thinking.
Key Concepts
- -- Scientific Method
- A structured approach to inquiry involving observation, question formulation, hypothesis development, experimentation, data collection, analysis, and conclusion.
- -- Density
- A measure of mass per unit volume of a substance, used to identify materials and understand buoyancy.
- -- Energy Conservation
- The principle that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.
- -- Newton's Laws
- Three fundamental principles describing the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting on it.
