Observe the diagram. When the switch is closed, the bulb does not light up. How could the circuit be changed so that the bulb will light?

• Remove the switch from the circuit.

• Remove the wire in the diagram that connects the battery and the light bulb.

• Move one of the wires from the positive (+) terminal of the battery to the other end of the switch.

• Move both wires from the positive (+) terminal of the battery to the other end of the switch.

Kyle is investigating the properties of three drinking cups labeled A, B, and C. In an experiment, he fills each cup with water that has been kept cold in the refrigerator. Then he places the cups of water on a tray in his kitchen. He measures the temperatures of the water every five minutes for 25 minutes. The table shows his results.

• Cup A is the largest cup, Cup B is smaller, and Cup C is the smallest.

• Cup A was kept sealed, while the other cups were open to the air.

• Cup C is made of a thermal insulator, such as thick foam or thick plastic.

• Cup C is made of a thermal conductor, such as a metal.

Duck 1 and Duck 2 are each floating in a lake. Then the wind speed increases on the lake for Duck 2, causing the waves to be taller and move faster. Which duck will the waves carry a farther distance?

• Duck 1 will travel farther because its waves are shorter.

• Duck 2 will travel farther because its waves are taller.

• Duck 2 will travel farther because its waves are faster.

• Neither duck will travel forward with the waves.

Observe the illustration. Alan is investigating the forces between bar magnets. He places the magnets side by side in each of the two arrangements shown here. What can he learn by observing the changes to the magnets?

• The force between two magnets depends on how their poles face each other.

• The force between two magnets is always the same, regardless of how their poles face each other.

• The N poles of magnets always attract, while the S poles always repel.

• The N poles of magnets always repel, while the S poles always attract.

Observe the photo. Brianne is using an hourglass to investigate the force of gravity on sand. For the hourglass shown here, she observes that the sand inside it falls to the bottom of the hourglass in 2 minutes. How could Brianne make the sand take longer than 2 minutes to fall?

• She could time the hourglass somewhere above the ground, such as the top of a skyscraper.

• She could stop observing the hourglass while the sand falls.

• She could hold the hourglass at an angle.

• She could time the hourglass somewhere below the ground, such as a basement.

A soccer ball is kicked. The ball rolls across the grass. How does friction act on the ball?

• Friction pulls the ball down a hill, even if the ball is rolling up a hill.

• Friction resists the ball’s motion when the ball is kicked and then does not act on the ball.

• Friction is constantly pushing the ball forward in the same direction as it rolls.

• Friction is constantly pushing against the rolling ball and slows it down.

Michaela tests the falling times of different objects. She drops each object from the same height. The table shows her results. What conclusion do Michaela's results support?

• Mass affects the falling time of an object.

• Shape affects the falling time of an object.

• The force of gravity only affects some objects.

• The force of gravity only pulls on objects when they are falling.
