Water is a transparent common substance that makes up the earth's oceans, lakes, seas, rivers, streams and more. Water is essential for every living thing to replenish and hydrate. The chemical formula for water contains one oxygen atom to two hydrogen atoms. Everything from the earth's crust to the human brain contain great amounts of water. Water on earth is continually being used and then goes through the water cycle to become new and usable again. The water cycle involves evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation and runoff. Even though water does not have any calories or nutritional benefit it is essential to all living forms on earth. Fishing which occurs in salt and fresh type waters yields much food for the world's people. Water even involves exercise for those who like to swim and engage in other sports like water skiing, wakeboarding and so on.

The image below shows the different parts of an Optical microscope. The Optical microscope is a type of microscope which uses visible light and a system of lenses to magnify images of small samples. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century. Basic optical microscopes can be very simple, although there are many complex designs which aim to improve resolution and sample contrast. All modern optical microscopes designed for viewing samples by transmitted light share the same basic components of the light path. In addition, the vast majority of microscopes have the same 'structural' components. The eyepiece, or ocular lens, is a cylinder containing two or more lenses; its function is to bring the image into focus for the eye. The eyepiece is inserted into the top end of the body tube. Eyepieces are interchangeable and many different eyepieces can be inserted with different degrees of magnification.

Fingernails and toenails are made of specialized cells that grow out of the epidermis. They too are filled with keratin. The keratin makes them tough and hard. Their job is to protect the ends of the fingers and toes. They also make it easier to feel things with the sensitive fingertips by acting as a counterforce when things are handled.

Record keeping is very important in scientific investigations. Follow the tips below to keep good science records. Use a bound laboratory notebook so pages will not be lost. Write in ink for a permanent record. Record the steps of all procedures. Record all measurements and observations. Use drawings as needed. Date all entries, including drawings.

Investigations are at the heart of science. They are how scientists add to scientific knowledge and gain a better understanding of the world. Scientific investigations produce evidence that helps answer questions. Even if the evidence cannot provide answers, it may still be useful. It may lead to new questions for investigation. As more knowledge is discovered, science advances.

A given kind of matter has the same chemical makeup and the same chemical properties regardless of its state. Thats because state of matter is a physical property. As a result, when matter changes state, it doesnt become a different kind of substance. For example, water is still water whether it exists as ice, liquid water, or water vapor.

The diagram shows how elements are written in relation to the mass and atomic number. The symbol X stands for the chemical symbol of the element. Two numbers are commonly used to distinguish atoms: atomic number and mass number. The symbol A at the top right of the element symbol refers to the mass number. Mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in an atom. The symbol Z at the bottom right of the element symbol refers to the atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. This number is unique for atoms of each kind of element.

The diagram below shows the beta decay of carbon 14. The carbon-14 nucleus has a neutron within it change into a proton Then we see both a beta minus particle (an electron with high kinetic energy) and an antineutrino ejected from the nucleus. Carbon 14 has two extra neutrons in its nucleus and that is a higher energy configuration and is a bit unstable, so it can release an electron and have a neutron turn into a proton - forming Nitrogen 14 instead, which is more stable.

Calculating acceleration is complicated if both speed and direction are changing or if you want to know acceleration at any given instant in time. However, its relatively easy to calculate average acceleration over a period of time when only speed is changing. Then acceleration is the change in velocity (represented by v) divided by the change in time (represented by t): acceleration = v t

teaching_images/velocity_time_graphs_8213.png
Figure 1 presents different velocity-time graphs. A velocity-time graph shows how an object's velocity or speed changes over time. The y axis represents velocity (v), while the x axis represents time (t). In the graph for constant velocity, the line remains horizontal, showing that the velocity of the object does not change over time. In the graph for constant acceleration, the line slopes upwards, showing that the velocity of the object increases over time. This increase in velocity is called acceleration. In the graph for constant retardation, the line slopes downwards, which means that velocity decreases over time. This decrease is called retardation. Retardation can also be called negative acceleration or deceleration. A moving object can both accelerate and decelerate. In the graph for irregular motion, the line moves up and down. This means that the velocity of object increases and decreases several times.

The scientific method is a set of steps that help us to answer questions. When we use logical steps and control the number of things that can be changed, we get better answers. As we test our ideas, we may come up with more questions. The basic sequence of steps followed in the scientific method is illustrated in Figure 1.1.

An experiment is a controlled scientific study of specific variables. A variable is a factor that can take on different values. For example, the speed of an object down a ramp might be one variable, and the steepness of the ramp might be another.

Energy changes form when something happens. But the total amount of energy always stays the same. The Law of Conservation of Energy says that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Scientists observed that energy could change from one form to another. They also observed that the overall amount of energy did not change.

Science is more about gaining knowledge than it is about simply having knowledge. Science is a way of learning about the natural world that is based on evidence and logic. In other words, science is a process, not just a body of facts. Through the process of science, our knowledge of the world advances.

Investigations are at the heart of science. They are how scientists add to scientific knowledge and gain a better understanding of the world. Scientific investigations produce evidence that helps answer questions. Even if the evidence cannot provide answers, it may still be useful. It may lead to new questions for investigation. As more knowledge is discovered, science advances.

A given kind of matter has the same chemical makeup and the same chemical properties regardless of its state. Thats because state of matter is a physical property. As a result, when matter changes state, it doesnt become a different kind of substance. For example, water is still water whether it exists as ice, liquid water, or water vapor.
