A battery is attached to a buzzer with wire as shown.

The buzzer will make noise only when_.

• The wire is replaced with a longer one.

• The battery is replaced with a stronger one.

• Another wire connects the buzzer to the battery.

• A switch that can open and close is added.

A student attached the parts as shown here and the bulb did not light.

The most likely reason the bulb does not light is because_.

• Batteries can't provide electric energy.

• The flow of electricity can't make a light bulb light.

• The switch must be open for electricity to flow.

• Yarn does not conduct electricity.

Students created the following circuit in which the bulb lights up.

Which of the following changes could make the bulb burn more brightly?

• A

• C

• D

• B

Which of the following correctly shows the configuration of a closed circuit in which the bulb will light?

• B

• C

• D

• A

A group of students built the circuit shown below.

Based on the diagram, what would happen if Bulb 5 burned out?

• Bulbs 1, 2, 3, 4 would remain lit.

• Only bulb 4 would remain lit.

• None of the bulbs would remain lit.

• Only bulbs 1,2, and 4 would remain lit.

A student tries to make a circuit, but the bulb will not light.

What should the student do to complete the circuit?

• Close the wires so that energy can travel in a complete path

• Add a power source to the circuit

• Remove the switch from the circuit

• Add another bulb to the circuit

What would happen if the circuit was opened at Point A?

• Bulbs 1 and 2 would stay lit

• Bulbs 1 would stay lit, and bulb 2 would go out

• Bulb 1 would go out, and bulb 2 would stay lit

When wires are connected to a battery and a lightbulb in a circuit, the lightbulb is lit. Which types of energy are produced by the battery and lightbulb?

• Electrical and sound

• Sound and light

• Electrical and light

• All of these
