This question is a bit vague.
Why is science said to be systematized body of knowledge?
To formulate into or reduce to a system: "The aim of science is surely to amass and systematize knowledge"
What is the tool in science that if you put in water it doesn't sink and in olive oil it does?
When you put a science tool in water it doesn't sink and in olive oil it does sink
What did bob Taylor who was in charge of computer science ARPA need to do in order to reduce the cost of different computer science projects at universities across the country?

What is lubrication in science?
Lubricant is basically an oil. There are bearings in a car or even a skateboard which requires lubircant so the metal will be able to control its temperature and avoid damage from friction and dirt.
Why is Science important in Medicine?
There is surprisingly little science in medicine, its mostly empirical. But a bit of science would reduce the error rates, and would probably lower costs. But the lawyers are happy the way it is.
What would you put in water so it doesnt evaporate?
A bit of oil on the surface reduce water evaporation.
What is the benefit to putting oil on a drill bit?
When you drill into something a lot of heat is created due to friction. The heat will cause both the drill bit and the material you are drilling to expand. Especially if you are drilling metal, adding oil will reduce friction, and prevent the drill bit from seizing up in the hole due to the expansion of the bit.
How do oil companies use science?
Oil Companies use science by burning oil, which is a chemical reaction and therefore is science. :D
Can you use canola oil instead of margarine in a box cake mix?
It would probably work out fine, but margarine loses a bit of volume when heated so you may wish to very slightly reduce the amount of oil.
How does oil reduce air friction?
Oil is mainly used to reduce friction between contacting surface, e.g., metal on metal - not to reduce air friction.
What is sprayed on surface water to reduce evaporation?
An oil reduce evaporation.
How can you reduce false assumptions in science class?
yep
How do you reduce the friction in a machine?
Oil it
Can you substitute oil for butter in a baking recipe?
YES! For cakes and breads there shouldn't be a problem. You can't really use oil in most cookies. You would probably want to reduce other liquids just a little bit depending on the recipe.
Is astronomy an earth science?
A tiny bit, but mainly it's a space science.
Is criminology science or an art?
Criminology is considered a social science because it uses scientific methods to study criminal behavior, crime rates, and the criminal justice system. It involves collecting data, analyzing patterns, and developing theories to understand why crimes occur and how they can be prevented.
