Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
Solution: The magnets in Pair 2 attract. The magnets in Pair 1 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force.
Magnet sizes affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Imagine magnets that are the same shape and made of the same material. The smaller the magnets, the smaller the magnitude of the magnetic force between them.
Magnet A is the same size in both pairs. But Magnet B is smaller in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]Based on the text, how does a sloth's fur help protect it?
Solution: Look at the text in bold below. It tells you two ways a sloth's fur helps protect it.
For example, sloths' long fur grows in the opposite direction from that of most animals. Most animals' fur grows downward, which helps rainwater run down off the animal. Sloths' fur, however, grows upward. When a sloth is hanging upside down, rainwater is still directed off its body. This helps the sloth dry off more quickly. Sloth fur has another special purpose. Each strand of fur has grooves that collect algae. The algae give the sloth a greenish color, which helps it blend in with its leafy environment. Along with sloths' slow movement, this disguise makes sloths hard for predators to spot. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]Which of these organisms contains matter that was once part of the persimmon tree?
Solution: Use the arrows to follow how matter moves through this food web. For each answer choice, try to find a path of arrows that starts from the persimmon tree.There are four paths matter can take from the persimmon tree to the parasol fungus: persimmon tree->black bear->parasol fungus. persimmon tree->pine vole->parasol fungus. persimmon tree->swallowtail caterpillar->black bear->parasol fungus. persimmon tree->swallowtail caterpillar->pine vole->parasol fungus. There are three paths matter can take from the persimmon tree to the gray fox: persimmon tree->pine vole->gray fox. persimmon tree->swallowtail caterpillar->gray fox. persimmon tree->swallowtail caterpillar->pine vole->gray fox. silver maple. The silver maple does not have any arrows pointing to it. So, in this food web, matter does not move from the persimmon tree to the silver maple.. beaver. The only arrow pointing to the beaver starts from the silver maple. The silver maple does not have an arrow pointing to it. So, in this food web, matter does not move from the persimmon tree to the beaver..

Question: [QUESTION]Compare the motion of two ducks. Which duck was moving at a lower speed?
Solution: Look at the distance each duck moved and the time it took to move that distance.
One duck moved 285 miles in 5 hours.
The other duck moved 315 miles in 5 hours.
Notice that each duck spent the same amount of time moving. The duck that moved 285 miles moved a shorter distance in that time. So, that duck must have moved at a lower speed. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
butter melting on a hot day
burning a marshmallow over a campfire
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
Butter melting on a hot day is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The butter changes from solid to liquid, but it is still made of the same type of matter.
Burning a marshmallow is a chemical change. The heat from the fire causes the type of matter in the marshmallow to change. The marshmallow becomes black and crispy.
Step 2: Look at each answer choice.
Both are only physical changes.
Butter melting on a hot day is a physical change. But burning a marshmallow is not.
Both are chemical changes.
Burning a marshmallow is a chemical change. But butter melting on a hot day is not.
Both are caused by heating.
Both changes are caused by heating.
Both are caused by cooling.
Neither change is caused by cooling. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
Solution: Distance affects the strength of the magnetic force. But the distance between the magnets in Pair 1 and in Pair 2 is the same.
So, the strength of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Using only these supplies, which question can Dustin investigate with an experiment?
Solution: | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
Solution: Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a greater distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is smaller.
There is a greater distance between the magnets in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
