Quantity of rubber bungs, amaias
In his shop, the trader has 500
rubber bungs that are identical with a labelled
Mass of 100g. However, the
trader is not sure whether this is the correct, mass of
each bung.
He has brought a sample of the bungs to your school’s physics laboratory for
help.
Task:
As a leamer of physics, use the set up below or any other experimental set up to
carry out a scientific investigation to determine the mass of the rubber bung.
Hence, help the trader to know how much the factory would pay him if all the
rubber bungs in his shop were bought.
Hint:
© The factory is offering UGX. 1,000 for every 50g mass of a rubber bung.

Your school received a donation of science equipment from one of the
prominent old boys who is working in China. Among the equipment received
were resistors whose resistances were labelled in Chinese language that made it
difficult to know their values.
The head of physics department has tasked the laboratory technician to label the
values of the resistors for proper stock records.
Task:
‘You have been provided with one of the resistors labelled R; carry out a
scientific investigation to determine the resistance of the resistor.
