5.6B review science

A student builds a circuit made up of a battery, two light bulbs, and a switch. What will the student most likely observe in this circuit?

• Light bulb 1 and light bulb 2 will both be on

• Light bulb 1 will be off, but light bulb 2 will be on

• Light bulb 1 and light bulb 2 will both be off

• Light bulb 1 will be on, but light bulb 2 will be off

The diagram shows a series circuit with three lit bulbs. How many of the bulbs will remain lit if the wire is cut a the point shown by the arrow?

• 0

• 1

• 2

• 3

A group of students built the circuit shown above. The lightbulb does not glow. Which statement explains this observation?

• The battery is not charged

• The lightbulb is not part of a complete circuit

• The circuit does not have a switch

• The bell uses most of the energy from the battery

A string of lights with small bulbs is shown below. The bulbs are connected by wire that is covered in an insulator. When the lights are on, electricity travels in....

• a complete circuit

• a sound wave

• a light ray

• an incomplete path

Which of these changes to the electric circuit shown above will cause the lightbulb to light up.

• Straightening the wire so that the current can flow more easily

• Adding a switch and more wire so that the current can flow more easily

• Turning one battery so that its positive end connects to the other battery's negative end

• Making the length of wire the same on both sides of the lightbulb

A student builds a circuit made up of a battery, two light bulbs, and a switch. What will the student most likely observe in this circuit?

• Light bulb 1 and light bulb 2 will both be on

• Light bulb 1 will be off, but light bulb 2 will be on

• Light bulb 1 and light bulb 2 will both be off

• Light bulb 1 will be on, but light bulb 2 will be off

Which of these devices is the only one NOT designed to produce both sound and light energy? (5.6A)

• 
• 
• 
• 

Which object requires only mechanical energy to perform its main function? (5.6A)

• 
• 
•

Many types of fans are used in homes. One type of electric fan is shown below. In addition to mechanical energy, which of these is produced as electric current passes through the circuit of this fan? (5.6A)

• Heat

• Mass

• Light

• Water vapor

Many people ride a bicycle for fun and exercise. Some people ride a bicycle to work because it saves money and benefits the environment by reducing the use of fossil fuels. Which of these is not an example of the bicycle using mechanical energy? (5.6A)

• The pedals, gears, and chain help turn the wheels.

• The wheels turn when the bicycle moves.

• The front wheel guides the bicycle as it moves.

• The reflector allows the bicycle to be seen at night.
