PLEASE DO NOW QUESTION MARIA CONDUCTED AN INVESTIGATION TO TEST IF OIL OR WATER WOULD TRAVEL FASTER DOWN A FUNNEL. SHE MADE A MODEL OF A FUNNEL. MARIA THEN POURED 100ML OF EACH SUBSTANCE DOWN THE FUNNEL. SHE TIMED THE SUBSTANCE AS IT MOVED THROUGH THE 0.5 METER DRAIN. HOW MUCH FASTER DID THE WATER FLOW THEN THE OIL? RECORD AND BUBBLE YOUR ANSWERS TO THE NEAREST HUNDREDTH IN THE BOX BELOW. Substance Distance Time Water .5m Oil .5m Speed
STEPS TO SOLVE PLEASE DO NOW 1. SOLVE SPEED FOR WATER ( 2. SOLVE SPEED FOR OIL ( 3. SUBTRACT THE TWO SPEEDS TO FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH THE FASTER WATER FLOWED ( 4. RECORD THIS NUMBER IN THE BUBBLE MAP (PAY ATTENTION TO THE DECIMAL POINT LOCATION)
