Science Ohio State Test Review

The circuit has three lightbulbs and a bell. Which procedure will result in the green bulb operating, the bell producing a sound, and only one blue lightbulb operating?

• Close Switch 1 and leave Switches 2 and 3 open

• Close Switches 2 and 3, and leave Switch 1 open

• Close Switches 1, 2, and 3

• Leave Switches 1, 2, and 3 open

The picture below shows a spoon in a glass of water. Why does the spoon appear bent?

• the light waves are refracted as they change speed when they pass from the water to the air

• the light waves are reflected as they change speed when they pass from the water to the air

• the light waves are absorbed when they pass from the water to the air

• the light waves bounce off of the water

Circuit A is constructed using a 6-volt battery, copper wires, and a bell. Circuit B is constructed using a 9-volt battery, string, and a bell. Circuit A produced a sound, but Circuit B did not produce a sound. Which of the following most likely explains why circuit B did not produce a sound?

• The electricity traveled in a complete path.

• There was not a switch in the circuit.

• The bell was designed to produce a small amount of sound energy.

• the string is a poor conductor of electricity.

Some students were studying different types of mixtures. They stirred together one cup of oil and one cup of water in a large glass beaker. They observed that the water settled to the bottom and the oil floated to the top. Which of the following does this investigation demonstrate?

• The oil completely dissolved in the water.

• The oil maintained it physical properties.

• The oil was more dense than the water.

• The oil melted in the water.
