A student is working on an investigation involving circuits. She uses two copper wires, a lightbulb, two batteries, and a small, electric fan to build two different, working circuits. What is the source of energy in both circuits?

• The lightbulb

• The batteries

• The copper wires

• The electric fan

The diagram below represents an electric circuit.

Even though the switch is not completing the circuit, both bulbs are still on. Which wire could be removed from the circuit and still leave the bulbs on?

• Wire R

• Wire S

• Wire T

• Wire U

A group of students was working on an investigation involving conductors and insulators. They discussed the properties of blocks made of four different materials. Each block had the same volume. The four blocks are shown below.
