Why is the concept of weight more complicated than is the concept of mass? Mass changes based on gravitational force, weight is constant. There are many different systems to measure weight. *Weight changes based on gravitational force, mass is constant.* Weight is used in everyday life.
*Weight changes based on gravitational force, mass is constant.*
When does a hypothesis become a scientific hypothesis? When there is a close agreement made by competent observers *When it can be tested through experiments* After the hypothesis has been established as a scientific law After the hypothesis has been established as a scientific theory
*When it can be tested through experiments*
When does the body of water in this video labeled as "warm" actually feel hot? *When the hand that was in the cold water was dipped into it.* When it turns into water vapor. During consumption. When the thermometer that was in the cold water was dipped into it.
*When the hand that was in the cold water was dipped into it.*
When does the body of water in this video labeled as "warm" actually feel cool? When the thermometer was removed. As its evaporating. *When the hand that was in the hot water was dipped into it.* When it is mixed with the other liquid.

Kai says, "What you're doing is you're measuring inertiawhat it takes to lift that penny." Why would it have been better of him to have said "...what it takes to MOVE that penny"? *When you lift the penny you are fighting against the penny's inertia and weight.* Inertia and gravitational forces act independently. Moving a penny sideways is easier to measure. It would not have been better to say _move_ instead of _lift_
*When you lift the penny you are fighting against the penny's inertia and weight.*
