Science Quizs: Energy

Lens

• A tool that refracts and organizes light rays as they transmit through so that a viewed image is easier to see.

• A device that magnifies sound waves for better hearing.

• An instrument used to measure temperature changes in the environment.

• A tool that captures and stores digital images.

Mirror

• A smooth, shiny surface that reflects a clear image.

• A rough surface that absorbs light.

• A transparent material that allows light to pass through.

• A colored surface that distorts images.

Circuit

• A closed loop that allows current to flow and perform work.

• A device that stores electrical energy.

• A type of resistor used in electronic circuits.

• A method of measuring electrical resistance.

Prism

• A tool that is used to refract light so that white light is separated into different colors.

• A device that measures the angle of light incidence.

• A type of lens that magnifies objects.

• An instrument used to measure temperature.

Reflection

• Light energy is absorbed by the surface of an object.

• Light energy bounces off the surface of an object instead of transmitting through it.

• Light energy passes through the surface of an object without any change.

• Light energy is converted into heat upon contact with an object.

Refraction

• Light energy bends as it transmits from one medium into another.

• Light energy is absorbed by the medium it passes through.

• Light energy travels in a straight line without changing direction.

• Light energy is reflected back into the original medium.

Switch

• A device that stores electrical energy.

• A device that controls the flow of electricity in a circuit.

• A device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

• A device that measures electrical current.

Force

• A type of energy that can be converted into work.

• A push or a pull that acts on an object.

• A measure of the mass of an object.

• A reaction that occurs when two objects collide.
