What is the law of conservation of energy?

Energy can be created from nothing and destroyed at any time

Energy changes form but the total amount remains constant in a closed system

Energy only exists as motion and cannot be stored

Energy is used up completely when work is done

What does it mean for energy to be transferred? Choose the best everyday-life example.

Energy moves from one object or system to another, such as a moving bat giving motion to a ball

Energy disappears when it turns into heat, such as a phone warming up

Energy can only transfer if both objects are the same temperature

Energy transfer happens only in living things

Describe the difference between kinetic energy and potential energy. Select the statement that best shows both and includes one example of each.

Kinetic is energy waiting to move; potential is energy of motion. Example: kinetic—book on a shelf; potential—rolling ball

Kinetic is energy of motion; potential is energy due to position or condition. Example: kinetic—moving bicycle; potential—stretched rubber band

Kinetic and potential are the same; both depend only on temperature. Example: kinetic—hot soup; potential—cold ice

Kinetic is energy of motion; potential is energy waiting to move, but neither can change forms. Example: kinetic—parked car; potential—flying bird

A student pushes a heavy box across the floor. Where does the energy come from and where does it go?

It comes from the student's chemical energy in muscles and becomes kinetic energy of the box with some thermal energy due to friction

It comes from the floor and becomes gravitational energy of the box

It appears from nowhere and disappears when the box stops

It comes only from heat in the air and becomes sound energy only

In a wave, what wavelength tell us?

Amplitude indicates the energy or height of the wave from the rest position

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or compressions

Amplitude measures how fast the wave travels

Wavelength is the time it takes for one wave to pass a point
