- Gravity
Watch an apple fall, change the pull of gravity, and prove you understand by controlling the drop.
- Friction
Give a block the same push on different surfaces and prove that friction is what steals the motion.
- Projectiles
Aim a shot, change the angle, and prove you can read the arc from the launch.
- Momentum
Crash one mass into another and prove that motion is shared, not lost.
- Waves
Change the pulse rate and prove that frequency packs the ripples closer.
- Electricity
Change voltage or resistance and prove that current โ what the lamp feels โ is V divided by R.
- Orbits
Change the launch speed and prove that an orbit is a fall that keeps missing the ground.
- Reactions
Warm the flask or feed it more reactant and prove that rate is how fast product appears.
- Ecosystems
Nudge foxes or rabbits and prove that a food web moves as one piece.
- Diffusion
Warm the rooms or open the door and prove that mixing is particles wandering, not a pump.
- Population
Change the growth rate or the ceiling and prove that a population is a rate meeting a limit.
- Buoyancy
Change how dense the object is and prove that it floats only when the water is denser.
- Springs
Stiffen the spring or change the mass and prove that a tighter coil bounces faster.
- Magnets
Change the gap or the strength and prove that magnetic pull grows fast as the magnets close in.
- Acids
Change pH and prove that acids turn the indicator one way and bases the other.
- States
Change temperature and prove that the same substance can be ice, water, or steam.
- Solubility
Warm the water or stir harder and prove that more solid can disappear into the liquid.
- Gases
Change pressure and prove that a trapped gas shrinks when you squeeze it.
- Equilibrium
Warm the mix and prove that a reversible reaction can lean toward products or back toward reactants.
- Catalysis
Add catalyst or warm the flask and prove that a helper can hurry a reaction without being the reactant.
- Electrolysis
Raise the voltage and prove that electricity can split water into bubbles of gas.
- Conservation
Move mass from start to product and prove that the total does not change.
- Photosynthesis
Change light or carbon dioxide and prove that a leaf builds sugar from both.
- Osmosis
Change the salt outside and prove that water moves toward the saltier side.
- Enzymes
Change temperature and prove that an enzyme works best near body heat and fails when it is too hot.
- Selection
Change how sooty the bark is and prove that the moths that match the tree are the ones that remain.
- Respiration
Change oxygen and prove that a cell needs Oโ to burn sugar for energy.
- Mitosis
Change how many rounds of splitting happen and prove that one cell becomes two, then four, then more.
- Immunity
Raise antibodies and prove that more defenders clear more germs.
- Genetics
Change how common the dominant allele is and prove that the visible trait can show up even when it is not the only gene in the tray.
