A nuclear power plant captures the energy released by the fission of the nuclei of uranium atoms and uses the released energy to boil water. The boiled water releases steam that spins a series of turbines as it rises. As each turbine spins, it generates power that is sent into the power grid. Fill in each blank with the correct term to correctly complete the sentences. You may use the same word more than once or not at all.

The uranium atoms contain 1. energy. When the atoms split this energy is 2.the 3.energy of the fission products and then 4.the water surrounding the core to produce steam. The energy in the steam is 5.the turbines that generate electricity used in people's homes.

For a family dinner, jose’s mom baked a loaf of bread. during the meal, his grandmother commented, “this bread is so dense! ” what do you think his grandmother meant by the word dense? you have some ideas regarding density already, but this experiment will enrich your understanding of the relationship between mass, volume and the density of objects. when making measurements in this experiment we will be using si units, the international system of units. the purpose of using si units is to have the ability to communicate and compare data results with other experiments without having to make conversions. measurement symbol si unit length m meter mass kg kilogram volume l liters density kg/l kilograms per liter any calculations that are performed during this experiment will ultimately be reported in scientific notation. recall that scientific notation is extremely important when we have data that is extremely small or large. scientists rely on a standard form of communication to quickly make hypotheses and judgements based on data. what is the density of block a? a0kg/l what is the density of block b? a1kg/l what is the density of block c? a2kg/l what is the density of block d? a3kg/l what is the density of block e? a4kg/l which block is the densest? a5
