Water Properties Labs: Quiz


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Water Pressure Lab: Observe these containers:What is the greatest source of the pressure exerted on the water?   

    • A.

      Air

    • B.

      Gravity

    • C.

      Water

    • D.

      Surface tension

    Correct Answer
    A. Air
  • 2. 

       The water and air pressure lab:If the lab were done while climbing Mt. Everest, as altitude increases what happens?

    • A.

      As altitude increases, air becomes less dense and the air pressure decreases. The water would not shoot out of the container.

    • B.

      As altitude increases, air becomes more dense and the air pressure decreases. The water would not shoot out of the container.

    • C.

      As altitude increases, air becomes more dense and the air pressure increases. The water would shoot out of the container farther than in the classroom.

    • D.

      As altitude increases, air becomes less dense and the air pressure increases. The water would shoot out of the container farther than in the classroom.

    Correct Answer
    A. As altitude increases, air becomes less dense and the air pressure decreases. The water would not shoot out of the container.
  • 3. 

    Think about Mt. Everest. Complete this statement: As altitude increases, air becomes.......

    • A.

      less dense, decreasing atmospheric pressure.

    • B.

      More dense, increasing atmospheric pressure.

    • C.

      less dense, increasing atmospheric pressure.

    • D.

      More dense, decreasing atmospheric pressure.

    Correct Answer
    A. less dense, decreasing atmospheric pressure.
  • 4. 

    Choose the correct term to fill in the blank.The Earth's __________ pulls on air, and this pull, or "pressure" of air, is called atmospheric pressure.

    • A.

      Gravity

    • B.

      Density

    • C.

      Volume

    • D.

      Air Pressure

    Correct Answer
    A. Gravity
  • 5. 

    In the water pressure lab:What would happen to the water coming out of the container if the container holes were larger? 

    • A.

      If the holes were larger, the volume of water flowing is greater, but slower with less pressure.

    • B.

      If the holes were larger, the volume of water flowing is less, but faster with more pressure.

    • C.

      If the holes were larger, the volume of water flowing is greater, faster and with more pressure.

    • D.

      If the holes were larger, the volume of water flowing is greater, faster and with less pressure.

    Correct Answer
    A. If the holes were larger, the volume of water flowing is greater, but slower with less pressure.
  • 6. 

    In the water pressure labs:What would happen to the water coming out of the container if the container holes were made smaller? 

    • A.

      Water comes out of the container faster, is under greater pressure and there is less volume of water in the flow.

    • B.

      Water comes out of the container faster, is under less pressure and there is greater volume of water in the flow.

    • C.

      Water comes out of the container slower, is under greater pressure and there is less volume of water in the flow.

    • D.

      Water comes out of the container slower, is under less pressure and there is less volume of water in the flow.

    Correct Answer
    A. Water comes out of the container faster, is under greater pressure and there is less volume of water in the flow.

    Water Pressure Lab: Observe these containers:Identify the condition the water in the bottle would be under the greatest pressure?

    • A.

      Bottle with the cap off

    • B.

      Cap-on, bottle with the widest opening

    • C.

      Cap-on, bottle with the narrowest opening

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Bottle with the cap off
  • 8. 

    In the water pressure lab, of the two containers and three holes: Which container and which container hole had the least amount of water coming out when the hole was un-taped?  

    • A.

      Capped, top hole

    • B.

      Uncapped, top hole

    • C.

      Uncapped, middle hole

    • D.

      Capped, middle hole

    Correct Answer
    A. Capped, top hole
