ACT June 2010 - Science

<p>Does anyone remember getting the most work done in experiment 8?</p>

<p>what’s that 95 question?</p>

<p>It was a graph…The only logical question was 95. I remember it because there was no 95 on the graph - you had to interpret it.</p>

<p>I thought the 95 one was 105? Because it barely increased, not enough to be 95.</p>

<p>I put 40, 40 I think…not sure exactly what I put, but I know my answer was based on LEAST deformation. I think I put “D” so whatever that was? was it 30 40 or 40 40?</p>

<p>The question asked which of them would be stiffest based on experiment 2 + 3. </p>

<p>So stiffer means less deformation. You know that Young’s modulus is a measure of the intrinsic properties… so the higher this is, the stiffer the object is. Then we have “I”. It showed that higher “I” had less deformation I think?</p>

<p>Does anyone remember getting the most work done in experiment 8? </p>

<p>Pretty sure it was in experiment 4 that the most work was done ;O</p>

<p>As I recall…it could have been that as well, but I think when you multiplied it out, 8 had the highest. not fully sure though.</p>

<p>yea I was caught on that one also I remember originally looking at 8 but then I saw 4. I f**king hate science. I would have had my dream score if this section wasn’t included! DAMN IT!</p>

<p>Can anyone just briefly clarify the young’s modulus one?</p>

<p>if 30 40 was the answer, what choice was that?</p>

<p>What were you trying to maximize? I was trying to find the maximum young’s modulus with the the I that yielded the minimum deformation.</p>

<p>Hah, don’t worry, I think reading may have ****ed me as well (hoping for 33…probably not going to happen, though I got a 32 on reading last time…). Frankly, Iwas just retaking this ti get a higher score in science.</p>

<p>i just plain don’t understand how to do anything on the science section, with all the graphs and writing, i end up with a sensory overload and i cant seem to get anything done (correctly). hopefully i’ll end up with a fair score <em>is hoping</em></p>

<p>Guys how many % questions were there in the part with the flowers and hight and were the awnsers 25% and 50%</p>

<p>I put whichever one had 200 when you multiplied it out.</p>

<p>There were two percentage problems on the flower passage. Don’t remember the first one, but the last one was 50% and I know BECAUSE I FREAKING MISSED IT.</p>

<p>Hey dont feel bad mastermania. I got every question wrong in the flower/tallness section. Yup… get out the knife</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Anyone? 10 char</p>

<p>more stiff=more deformation.
more deformation=less I
Hence, I 30 and W 40 were correct.</p>

<p>was that answer D by chance? or was it one of the first two.</p>

<p>one of the first two. Answer choice D was I 40 and W 40</p>

<p>Ah I think I know where I went wrong.</p>

<p>

The stiffer an object, the MORE it deforms? That seems contradictory… is that right?</p>

<p>edit: Just looked up the real science. Stiffness is the resistance to deformation. More stiff = less deformation. Are you guys still sure it wasn’t 40,40?</p>
