1 John Buchan Middle School Level 4 Investigative Skills 69 min 59 marks John Buchan Middle School 1
2 1. Travelling sounds (a) Jill investigated whether or not sound travelled through different materials. She made three telephones using plastic cups. She used different materials to connect the cups. One child talked through the telephone and Jill listened. Look at Jill s notes of her investigation. How many different materials did Jill test?... (b) What was the factor Jill observed or measured to collect her results?... John Buchan Middle School 2
3 (c) Jill changed three factors at the same time. Complete the list to show the THREE factors Jill changed in this investigation The first one has been done for you. 1. The tightness of the line marks (d) Why is it important to change only ONE factor at a time in an investigation?... (e) Jill carried out her investigation of sound travelling through different materials again. She made sure only one factor was changed. Jill described her conclusion. Jill s teacher said this was not a useful science conclusion for her investigation. Why was Jill s conclusion not a useful science conclusion? John Buchan Middle School 3
4 2. Magnets (a) Rob holds a magnet near a nail. The magnet attracts the nail. Name ONE metal the nail could be made from... (b) Rob gets some more magnets. He finds out which magnet is strongest by putting pieces of paper between each magnet and the nail. John Buchan Middle School 4
5 The table below shows how many pieces of paper Rob puts between each magnet and the nail before the nail falls off. Magnet A B C D Number of pieces of paper Rob has not drawn the result for magnet C on the graph. Use the results in the table to complete the graph for magnet C Number of pieces of paper A B C D Magnet (c) (i) Tick ONE box to show which magnet is strongest. A B C D John Buchan Middle School 5
6 (ii) Explain how the results show which magnet is strongest Remote control (a) Ruth wants to find out how well the remote control turns on her TV when different materials are put in front of it. John Buchan Middle School 6
7 Ruth holds writing paper in front of the remote control. The TV still turns on. Ruth repeats the test with different materials. The table below shows her results. Material Distance from TV when remote does not work (steps) writing paper 5 clear plastic bag 25 tracing paper 8 foil 0 book 0 Complete the graph to show the results for the tracing paper. 25 Distance from TV when remote does not work (steps) writing paper clear plastic bag tracing paper foil book Material (a) Ruth s brother says she should not test the book as it makes the test unfair. Why does the book make her test unfair?.. John Buchan Middle School 7
8 (c) Ruth s brother repeats the investigation to check the results. He takes fewer steps back for each material before the TV does not turn on. Tick ONE box to explain why Ruth s brother takes fewer steps back before the TV does not turn on. He presses the remote control harder his steps are bigger he uses smaller pieces of each material the batteries in the remote control are newer (d) Ruth could improve her investigation by getting more accurate results. Describe how Ruth could get more accurate results... (e) Ruth sees a pattern in her results. She states My results suggest that the remote control uses light to turn on the TV. Describe the evidence in Ruth s table of results that supports her statement Straw sounds (a) Polly has a straw. She cuts one end of the straw. John Buchan Middle School 8
9 She blows into the cut end of the straw. It makes a sound. The sound is caused by vibrations. Name TWO things that vibrate to cause this sound.... and... (b) Polly thinks that changing the length of the straw may change how high or low the note is. What is the scientific name for how high or low a note is?... (c) Polly cuts four identical straws into different lengths. John Buchan Middle School 9
10 Her friends blow gently into the straws. The note from each straw is different. Some notes are high and some are low. Describe how the length of a straw affects how high or low the note is..... (d) (i) Tania says Polly s test is not a fair test because a different person is blowing into each straw. Why might Polly s test not be a fair test if different people blow into each straw? (ii) Polly says It might not be a fair test even if one person blows into each straw. Explain why it might not be a fair test even if one person blows into each straw John Buchan Middle School 10

Write the label on the picture to name the equipment she uses to measure the force. (c) Miya measured the force for each magnet three times to calculate the average force. The table below shows her results. Magnet Average force needed to pull the magnet away (N) A 2 B 10 C 5 D 6 Which magnet is the strongest?... John Buchan Middle School 12
13 (d) Miya observes that as she pulls on the magnet the force reading increases until the magnet comes away from the board. Tick ONE box to show when Miya should take the force reading. before she starts pulling on the magnet just before the magnet pulls away from the board just after she starts pulling on the magnet after the magnet is pulled away from the board (e) Give ONE reason why it is better to measure the force for each magnet three times instead of just once Mini-beasts (a) Some children find four mini-beasts. They make a table about their observations. Complete Table 1 below by adding the names of these four mini-beasts. hoverfly spider ant butterfly John Buchan Middle School 13
14 Table 1 Name Legs Wings Antennae (b) The children have some ideas about where to put the mini-beasts when they have finished studying them. Tick ONE box to show where the children should put the mini-beasts. in a safe place away from the road in the place where they were found in a pot with food and water in a dark place under a log John Buchan Middle School 14
15 (c) The children find more mini-beasts and make a new table. Table 2 Name Legs Wings Antennae Notes cranefly long thin tail dragonfly long thin tail housefly none tiger moth hairy body Use Table 2 to help you name these two mini-beasts. (i)... (ii)... John Buchan Middle School 15
16 (d) It would be easier to name the mini-beasts if the children made a key. Tick TWO boxes to show which features would be useful in a key to separate the four mini-beasts in Table 2. Tick TWO boxes. has 6 legs has a long thin tail has 4 wings has 2 antennae 7. Isaac Newton (a) Isaac Newton was a famous scientist who was born in There is a famous story about Newton watching an apple fall from a tree. Newton thought a force must cause the apple to fall. John Buchan Middle School 16
17 Tick ONE box to show which force on the apple causes it to fall down from the tree. a pulling force towards the tree a pulling force towards the Earth a pushing force from the apple a pushing force from the air (b) Newton did different investigations to test his ideas. Why was it important for Newton to test his ideas using investigations? (c) Newton realised that the force which made the apple fall to the ground also causes the Earth to orbit the Sun. Name the force that causes the Earth to orbit the Sun.... (d) How long does the Earth take to orbit the Sun once? (e) How does the Earth move to cause day and night? John Buchan Middle School 17
18 8. Building materials (a) Some children put 4 bricks made of different materials into 1000 cm 3 of water and left them overnight.
