Introduction In this experiment pupils will be investigating how to measure the flow of a fluid; water through a burette, and sand through a filter funnel. DfE Apparatus and Techniques covered The codes used below match the OCR Practical Activity Learner Record Sheet ( / ) and Trackers ( / ) available online. There is no requirement to use these resources. 1a [1]: Use of appropriate apparatus to make and record a range of measurements accurately, including: i [i]) length; iv [iv]) time 3 [15]) Use of appropriate apparatus and techniques for measuring motion, including determination of: i) speed; ii) rate of change of speed (acceleration/deceleration) Aims To use appropriate apparatus to measure speed of a fluid flow, and describe how the speed changes over time. To plot a graph of distance against time to find average speed and instantaneous speed. Intended class time 50-60 minutes Links to Specifications: Gateway Science (Suite A) including Working Scientifically (WS) PM2.1ii recall and apply: acceleration (m/s2) = change in velocity (m/s) / time (s) P2.1h apply formulae relating distance, time and speed, for uniform motion, and for motion with uniform acceleration WS1.2e Evaluate methods and suggest possible improvements and further investigations WS1.3a Presenting observations and other data using appropriate methods WS1.3b Translating data from one form to another WS1.3e Interpreting observations and other data WS1.4a Use scientific vocabulary, terminology and definitions WS1.4b Recognise the importance of scientific quantities and understand how they are determined WS1.4c Use SI units and IUPAC chemical nomenclature unless inappropriate
