Total questions: 15
Worksheet time: 8mins
Elijah and Gabe are supposed to be watching a science video about the moons of Saturn on their chrome book. Instead they are watching YouTube videos of gamers. How is this a violation of school rules?
It is not a violation because they finished the video and were waiting for others to finish.
It is not a violation because the teacher allowed them to be watching a video.
It is a violation because they violated the school’s policy by going to unauthorized websites.
It is a violation because watching gamer videos is lame .
Which of the following are examples of a testable question?
Does the amount of water affect the height of a plant?
What is the best show on Netflix?
Is 2020 the worst year ever?
How many drops of water can fit on the surface of a penny?
Identify the type of graph that should be used in this instance. Madhuri wants to show how her height has changed since First Grade.
bar graph
line graph
pie/circle graph
What is the best scientific definition of a wave?
a disturbance that travels through a medium, transporting energy from one location (its source) to another location without transporting matter.
To move one's hand back and forth in greeting or as a signal.
a long body of water curling into an arched form and breaking on the shore.
a sudden occurrence of or increase in a feeling, or emotion.
Use the picture to answer the questions:
Which of these two waves has the higher frequency? Then choose which statement best explains your choice.
Top wave
Bottom wave
A shorter wavelength has a lower frequency
A shorter wavelength has a higher frequency.
A longer wavelength has a higher frequency.
Explain what is happening to the light rays in the pictures.
In reflection, the light energy bounces off the object.
In refraction, the light travels from one medium to another and bends the light rays.
In reflection, the light scatters in all directions.
This illustration shows a bookshelf with four identical books. How does the gravitational potential energy of the four books compare?
The books have the same gravitational potential energy.
The GPE increases as the books get higher off the ground.
The books are not moving so they do not have GPE.
The GPE decreases as the books get higher off the ground.
The illustration shows three skiers - skier A at the top of the hill, skier B in the middle, and skier C who has almost reached the bottom. Which skier has the greatest gravitational potential energy in their present position and why?
Skier A, because she is at the top and has the farthest to go to the bottom.
Skier C, because she has skied the farthest to get to the bottom.
Skier C, because she is almost at the bottom of the hill.
Skier A, because she is gaining potential energy.
An asteroid passes close to a planet, as given in Figure 1. The asteroid does not get pulled into orbit around the planet. Which sentence explains why the asteroid did not get pulled into orbit?
The inertia of the asteroid was equal to the pull of gravity from the planet.
The inertia of the asteroid was much less than the pull of gravity from the planet.
There is not enough information to compare the force of inertia to the force of gravity.
The inertia of the asteroid was much greater than the pull of gravity from the planet.
What is the relationship between DISTANCE from the sun and the TIME it takes a body to orbit the sun?
The greater the distance from the sun, the more time it takes to orbit the sun.
The shorter the distance from the sun, the longer it takes to orbit the sun.
The greater the distance from the sun, the less time it takes to orbit the sun.
The larger the planet, the more time it takes to orbit the sun.
A year on Mars is equal to 687 Earth days. What can be determined about Mars?
Mars takes more than half as much time as Earth to orbit the sun once.
Mars takes almost twice as much time as Earth to orbit the sun once.
Mars takes more than half as much time as Earth to rotate once on its axis.
Mars takes almost twice as much time as Earth to rotate once on its axis.
When it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere, it is summer in the Southern Hemisphere. Which statement best explains the reason for this situation?
When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun.
When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun.
When the Northern Hemisphere is closer to the sun than the Southern Hemisphere is, the Southern Hemisphere is relatively far from the sun.
When the Northern Hemisphere is farther from the sun than the Southern Hemisphere is, the Southern Hemisphere is relatively close to the sun.
What is the best explanation for why the phases of the moon occur?
An observer on Earth views a shadow of the Sun on the moon.
The Earth creates a shadow on the moon.
An observer on Earth views different sunlit parts of the moon as it revolves around Earth.
The moon gives off its own glow and the amount of glow changes each night.
An environmental factor that keeps a population from increasing past a certain amount is
an abiotic factor.
a biotic factor.
a limiting factor.
a math factor.
Which of these best fits the description of a scavenger?
A bear that searches under leaves for fallen fruit.
A coyote that kills the rabbit and eats it.
A plant that turns sunlight into sugar.
A crow that picks at roadkill.
