Which best explains why the pith balls are not touching at step 3?

a)

they have LIKE charges

b)

they have OPPOSITE charges

c)

They were magnetized by the rod

d)

They exchanged electrons with each other

2.

The force between charges q1 and q2 is ​ (a)  

Choose from the below words
attractive
repulsive
3.

When the distance between those two charges doubles, the force between the charges ​ ​ (a)  

Choose from the below words
decreases
increases
4.

Hydrogen fuel cells combine oxygen gas and hydrogen gas to produce electricity. The oxygen atoms react with the hydrogen atoms across an electrochemical cell, similar to a battery. This process produces electricity, water, and small amounts of heat. Hydrogen fuel cells are a promising energy source for many reasons. Hydrogen is the most abundant element on Earth. Hydrogen fuel cells don't produce pollutants, and they are more efficient than traditional combustion technology (such as that of combustion engines used in most vehicles).  

Hydrogen fuel cells convert ​ (a)   ​ energy stored in molecules into electrical energy.

Choose from the below words
potential
kinetic
5.

Electrical energy is a form of ​ (a)   energy

Choose from the below words
kinetic
potential
6.

Students wanted to observe how gravity affects the speed of falling objects. Because they struggled to measure the distance traveled by a falling object at different time intervals, they decided to observe gravity's effect on the speed of an object rolling down a ramp. They made a 1-meter ramp by cutting a PVC pipe in half lengthwise. They made 1-centimeter tick marks along the ramp to help them identify the distance traveled. They rolled a 45.9-gram golf ball down the ramp and videoed its progress along the ramp. They played the video back in slow motion so they could record the distance the ball traveled at different time intervals. They conducted three trials. Their data in the table.

COMPARED TO A FALLING BALL, THE RAMP ​ (a)   ​ the ball so that gravity's effect on its motion is easier to observe

Choose from the below words
slows  down
speeds up
16.

The RAMP slows down the ball so that gravity's effect on its motion is ​ (a)  

Choose from the below words
easier to observe
removed
increased
17.

The golf's speed ​ (a)   as it traveled down a ramp because of gravity

Choose from the below words
increased
decreased
remains constant
18.

Gravity causes objects to ​ (a)   as objects travels down

Choose from the below words
accelerate
move at a constant velocity
