Cindy is studying how the light absorption of construction paper varies with the color of the paper. She decides to conduct her experiment in a room that is completely closed to sunlight. She provides a single light source—a florescent light bulb and places it 1.0 meters above each sheet of construction paper for 20.0 minutes.

If Cindy wants to measure the relative absorption of each sheet of construction paper, which of the following tools would be the most useful?
A) A temperature probe
B) A hand lens
C) A light sensor
D) A prism

Electromagnets coils of wire paper clips picked up 10 3 15 6 20 9 25 12 ms. owens' class was studying magnets. ms. owens showed her students how to make an electromagnet using a nail, a d-cell battery, and plastic coated wire. the students wrapped the wire around the nail and then attached the ends to the battery. when they were finished, they tested their magnets by investigating how many paperclips their magnets could pick up. they also tested whether they could increase the strength of their electromagnets by using more coils of wire. they recorded the class average of their results in the data table seen here. ms. owens asked her students to graph their data in a line graph. how should the students label the x-axis on their line graph? a) size of battery b) number of paper clips c) number of coils of wire d) strength of electromagnet
