Use metric prefixes to express measures so that the numerical value is between 1 and Express all results with proper scientific notation or with proper use of metric prefixes. 6 Convert measures within the metric system, and without, given 14 appropriate conversion factors. 7 Use units as a means to check calculations and solve problems Construct a proper graph with adequate labels and appropriate scales. 20, 21 Graph a set of data and draw the best fit line or curve. Determine the equation of the best fit for cases of linear, hyperbolic, and parabolic relations. State and discuss the significance and/or meaning of the slope (or other coefficients) on any particular graph. 9 Use the graph or regression equation from the graph to interpolate or extrapolate values. 22, 23

Air resistance or drag is measured in units of newtons where one newton is equal to one kilogram-meter per seconds squared (1 N = 1 kg m/s 2 ).

DIRECTIONS FOR ALL GRAPHING PROBLEMS ALL YEAR: All graphs must be on graph paper to receive credit. Work the entire problem right on the graph paper -- this means everything -- calculations, equations, answers, etc. 20. A certain volume of a particular substance was placed in a container and then massed on a balance in order to produce the data below. Determine which variable is dependent and which is independent. Mass (kg) Volume (m 3 )
5 (a) Graph the data. Draw the best-fit line. (b) Determine the equation. (c) What physical characteristics do the slope and y-intercept represent? (d) According to the graph what volume of the substance would correlate with a mass of zero? Does this make sense? 21.

(a) Graph the data and draw the curve that best fits all points. (b) Find the equation that describes the relationship shown by the graph.

It is found that there is a relation between the speed of the water shooting out of the spigot and the depth of the water remaining in the pool. The following data is collected as the pool drains:
6 Pool Depth (m) Water Speed (m/s) The theories of fluid dynamics predict that the speed of the escaping water is proportional to the square root of the pool's depth. Plotting this data on your calculator reveals that this seems to be the case -- when this data is graphed "as is" a parabolic curve is formed. A common practice in science is to "straighten the curve" when graphing data with a nonlinear relation. To do this, first prepare a column of values equal to the square root of the pool's depth. (a) Now, graph water speed versus the square root of the pool's depth. (b) Draw the line of best fit and find the corresponding equation. (c) What are the advantages of this method of analyzing nonlinear data?
