Water Cycle Experiment Analysis

The video tutorial demonstrates a simple experiment to illustrate the water cycle. It begins with an introduction to the materials needed: plastic wrap, a cup, a bowl, an ice cube, and hot water. The experiment is set up by placing the cup in the bowl, adding hot water, and covering it with plastic wrap. An ice cube is placed on top to simulate the atmosphere. As the hot water evaporates, it condenses on the plastic wrap and eventually precipitates into the cup, mimicking the water cycle. The tutorial concludes by showing the amount of water collected and summarizing the process.

What is the main focus of today's experiment?

• Electric circuits

• Photosynthesis

• The water cycle

• Magnetism

Which of the following is NOT a material used in the experiment?

• Plastic wrap

• A cup

• A spoon

• An ice cube

What is the first step in setting up the experiment?

• Pour hot water into the bowl

• Place the ice cube on top

• Wrap the bowl with plastic wrap

• Put the cup in the bowl

What is the purpose of the plastic wrap in the experiment?

• To add weight

• To hold the ice cube

• To simulate the atmosphere

• To measure temperature

Where is the ice cube placed in the experiment setup?

• Inside the cup

• Under the bowl

• On the table

• On top of the plastic wrap

What process is demonstrated when water vapor meets the cold air from the ice cube?

• Freezing

• Sublimation

• Condensation

• Evaporation

What happens to the water vapor when it condenses?

• It precipitates

• It disappears

• It turns into ice

• It evaporates

What does the cup represent in the experiment?

• The ocean

• The sun

• The atmosphere

• The land

What is the final observation made in the experiment?

• The plastic wrap tears

• The hot water cools down

• Water precipitates into the cup

• The ice cube melts completely

What does the experiment demonstrate about the water cycle?

• The sun has no effect

• Water can only evaporate

• Condensation does not occur

• Precipitation is part of the cycle
