6th Grade Q2 Review

Anne and Juan rolled four different objects down a ramp. They measured the distance each object rolled and the time until each object came to a stop. They plotted each point and connected it with a line for each object on the graph below. Which object has the greatest average speed? (6.P.11.1)

• Object A

• Object B

• Object C

• Object D

Which of these is the best example of kinetic energy converting into potential energy? (6.P.11.1)

• A bicyclist coasting down a long hill

• A car engine moving the car forward

• A roller coaster car moving toward the top of the next hill

• A thrown ball falling toward the ground

Which statement below explains the possibility for a distance versus-time graph to be a vertical line? (6.P.12.1)

• It is not possible.

• When an object is moving at constant speed.

• When an object is not moving.

• When an object is moving 2 meters per second.

A ball is tossed into the air like in the diagram below. Which of the following statements about the ball is the BEST example of the Law of Conservation of Energy?

• The ball has less total energy at Y than at W.

• The ball has more kinetic energy at X than at Z.

• The ball has more potential energy at Z than at X.

• The ball has the same amount of total energy at W as at X.

• One person on team E falls down and their team loses a force 100 N.

• One person on each team E and F falls down and loses a force of 100 N.

• One person on each team E and F pulls harder with an additional force of 75 N.

• Two people on teams E and F each pull harder with an additional force of 50 N each.

Through freezing and thawing, a boulder is broken into smaller pieces. What is this an example of?

• Chemical Weathering

• Abrasion

• Physical Weathering

• Deposition

Scientists notice that a river delta has been gradually getting larger and shallower over the past 50 years. What is the most likely reason for this change? (6.E.6.1)

• The river current increases and there is no change in the amount of sediment.

• Sediment is deposited as the river slows down.

• The river current slows down and there is no change in the amount of sediment.

• Sediment is deposited as the river speeds up.
