Question

the passage below describes a process of scientific inquiry. select the part of the passage that describes communicating the findings.
a motorized toy boat moving across a pond
fred took his motorized toy boat to the park with his cousin. the boat zipped across the pond, and fred wondered if adding mass to the boat would affect its speed. he didnt think so, since the motor should keep propelling it at the same rate. fred decided to time the boat as it traveled from one side of the pond to the other. he then taped a pebble to the boat and timed it again. finally, he added a second pebble and repeated the procedure. fred noticed that as he added mass, the trips took longer. the empty boat took the least time to cross the pond, and the boat with two rocks took the longest. fred concluded that adding mass does slow down the boat. he changed his prediction: the motor must provide a set amount of force, so it cant maintain the same speed as more mass is added. he shared his results with his aunt and confirmed that the boats motor exerts a consistent force, so increasing the boats mass reduces its acceleration.

Explanation:

In the scientific inquiry process, communicating findings involves sharing results with others. Fred shared his results with his aunt, which is the part that describes communicating the findings.

Answer:

He shared his results with his aunt and confirmed that the boat's motor exerts a consistent force, so increasing the boat's mass reduces its acceleration.
