a)

0 J

b)

58.8 J

11.

A student puts moist soil in a bottle and sets the bottle under a lamp. After a while, she observes that there are water droplets on the sides of the bottle. What happened?

a)

Radiant energy from the lamp heats up the air in the bottle, which then heats the water in the soil by conduction. The heated water then conducts up the sides of the bottle.

b)

Radiant energy from the lamp warms the soil, causing water to evaporate from the moist soil. The water vapor moves in the bottle by convection.

c)

Radiant energy from the lamp warms the soil, causing water to evaporate from the moist soil. The water vapor moves in the bottle by conduction.

d)

Radiant energy from the lamp heats up the air in the bottle, which heats the water in the soil by convection. The heated water then conducts up the sides of the bottle.

12.

Felicia attached one end of a spring to the table and attached a 5 gram (g) weight to

the other end, stretching the spring. Which of the following describes the potential

energy in the system?

a)

The spring has elastic potential energy and the weight has gravitational potential energy.

b)

The spring has chemical potential energy and the weight has elastic potential energy.

c)

The spring has gravitational potential energy and the weight has chemical potential energy.

d)

The spring has chemical potential energy and the weight has gravitational potential energy.

13.

Which of the following is true about point S?

a)

The total energy at point S is equal to twice the total energy of the system because new energy is created as the potential energy increases.

b)

The total energy at point S is equal to the total energy of the system because energy has been transformed as the kinetic energy decreases.

c)

The total energy at point S is equal to half of that of the total system because all the potential energy has been destroyed.

d)

The total energy at point S is equal to half of that of the total system because all the kinetic energy has been destroyed.
