12.

Emma, Avery, and Oliver are playing with a toy car. They notice that the car moves when they push it. How is this observation related to energy and motion?

a)

Energy, like the push they give to the car, is required to cause or change motion.

b)

Energy has no relation to the car's motion.

c)

Energy is a result of the car's motion.

d)

The car's motion is the only source of energy.

13.

Emma, Abigail, and Maya are discussing the concept of energy and work. Emma says that energy is required to do work, and work is a result of energy. Abigail says that energy and work are unrelated concepts. Maya says that energy is a byproduct of work, and Abigail thinks that work is a form of energy storage. Who is correct?

a)

Energy and work are unrelated concepts.

b)

Energy is required to do work, and work is a result of energy.

c)

Energy is a byproduct of work.

d)

Work is a form of energy storage.

14.

Avery is pushing a heavy box across the room. How is the energy related to the work Avery is doing?

a)

Energy is only related to Avery's motion, not the work he is doing.

b)

Energy is transferred to the box when Avery does work on it.

c)

Energy is not related to the work Avery is doing.

d)

Energy is created when Avery does work on the box.

15.

Does work get done when you push a wall and it doesn't move? Explain.

a)

Yes

b)

No

c)

Sometimes

d)

Only if the wall moves
