- Q1How can you express 200,000 meters in scientific notation?200 x 10^3 m20 x 10^4 m2 x 10^5 m2 x 10^6 m30sSTEM_GP12EU-Ia1
- Q2A car travels 500 kilometers. How would this distance be written in meters using scientific notation?5 x 10^6 m5 x 10^5 m50 x 10^4 m5 x 10^4 m30sSTEM_GP12EU-Ia1
- Q3A physics experiment requires precise measurement and yields a result of 0.00039 seconds. How can you express this in scientific notation?0.39 x 10^-2 s3.9 x 10^-4 s3.9 x 10^-5 s39 x 10^-6 s30sSTEM_GP12EU-Ia1
- Q4Which statement best differentiates accuracy from precision in the context of scientific measurements?Accuracy means the measured value is exactly the same as the actual value, while precision has no relation to the actual value.Accuracy and precision in scientific measurements mean the same thing.Accuracy refers to how close a measured value is to the actual value, while precision refers to how close the results of multiple measurements are to each other.Accuracy refers to how close the results of multiple measurements are to each other, while precision refers to how close a measured value is to the actual value.30sSTEM_GP12EU-Ia2
- Q5In an experiment, if a student repeatedly measures the density of an object and gets very similar results each time, what aspect of measurement is the student demonstrating?ValidityReliabilityPrecisionAccuracy30sSTEM_GP12EU-Ia2
- Q6Which of the following best differentiates random errors from systematic errors in physics experiments?Random errors are always caused by human error, while systematic errors are not.Random errors vary in a nonsystematic, unpredictable manner while systematic errors consistently affect the results in a particular direction.Random errors cause high-level inaccuracies, while systematic errors cause low-level inaccuracies.Systematic errors are mistakes that can always be corrected, while random errors cannot.30sSTEM_GP12EU-Ia3
