Explain what is meant by the physical sciences. How are they different from life
sciences? What disciplines make up the physical sciences? - ANSWER-Physical
science studies non-living systems, as opposed to life science, which studies living
systems. Physics, chemistry, and Earth and space sciences are all physical sciences.


A scientist who studies how different sediments, rocks, and soil have formed the
landscapes and natural structures that we see on Earth are included in the field of
_______ - ANSWER-earth science


_________ that have formed the landscapes and natural structures that we see on
Earth are included in the field of Earth science. - ANSWER-Sediments, rocks, and
soil


A mathematical model is used to predict the trajectory of a bullet fired from a gun.
Which discipline of physical science is used to develop this model? - ANSWER-
Physics


An environmental scientist monitors pollutants in a lake. Which two disciplines of
physical science does this scientist use? Choose 2 answers - ANSWER-Chemistry
Earth Science




pg. 1

,Which study involves both Earth science and physics? - ANSWER-Calculating
how much energy is associated with a hurricane


Which of the following is a primary investigation in Earth science? (Select all that
apply.)
a. the composition of Earth's interior


b. the formation of mountain ranges, both above and under the ocean


c. how magnetism can be used to image the body


d. animal and plant life on an island in the Pacific Ocean - ANSWER-A and B
(The study of how magnetism can be used to image the body is not part of Earth
science. Animal and plant life are studied mostly in life sciences)


A scientist is studying how ice crystals form in cirrus (thin, wispy) clouds. Which
field(s) of science is she studying?


physics


Earth science


both of these - ANSWER-Ice crystals formation in clouds requires knowledge of
both physics and atmospheric science


Fossil fuels are organic materials formed over millions of years from dead plants
and animals that were subjected to extreme temperatures and pressures in Earth's



pg. 2

,crust. Which of the following sciences are BEST used to explain how fossil fuels
formed?


only biology and Earth science


only chemistry and Earth science


only physics and Earth science


physics, chemistry, and Earth science - ANSWER-All three sciences are needed to
understand the formation of fossil fuels.


Which question could be answered with a controlled experiment? - ANSWER-
Does ice melt faster in an empty glass or in a glass full of water?


Which topic would be appropriate for a controlled experiment? - ANSWER-
Determining how fast different chemical pollutants dissolve in water


Sir Isaac Newton discovered that the force of gravity between two masses
increases if the masses increase, and decreases if the distance between the masses
increases. No experiments have ever contradicted this relationship. Which type of
scientific statement is this? - ANSWER-Law


The well-accepted scientific explanation for many characteristics of Earth's crust
states that the crust is broken into several large plates. These plates move slowly
over the mantle below because of convection and other processes. Earthquakes and
volcanoes are most common at places where the plates interact. Evidence from
physics, chemistry, and geology supports this explanation. Which type of scientific
idea is this explanation an example of? - ANSWER-Theory


pg. 3

, It may surprise you to learn that Hollywood stunt designers must often perform
complex calculations before a stunt can be carried out. These equations are used to
determine the forces acting on the objects involved in the stunt and to predict their
motions. Stunt designers and performers must therefore know a lot about ______ -
ANSWER-physics


________ equations are used to determine how fast a stunt person needs to drive a
car to perform a stunt like the car jump shown in the photo. The hood of the car in
the photo is going to be damaged and the driver could be seriously hurt (so don't
try this at home!). To prevent driver injury, the jumping and landing ramps on
movie sets have specially designed suspension systems. Designing these systems
also requires an understanding of physics. - ANSWER-Physics


Soft drink manufacturers rely on an understanding of _____ to develop and
analyze their beverages. - ANSWER-chemistry


Chemistry is the study of ______, their structures, and their interactions to form
new substances. - ANSWER-atoms and molecules


Which of the following would NOT be a primary investigation in physics?


A. what reactions occur that cause wood to burn in a fireplace


B. what keeps a bicycle from falling over


C. how rainbows form
