A student began building a circuit to light a bulb. What else does the student need to produce light?
a battery that has energy
a wire that is insulated
a switch that is open
another bulb of the same size
This circuit has a battery, buzzer, and switch.
When the switch is closed the buzzer will sound because -
the switch gives energy to the battery
the buzzer is made of special plastic
the wires are cooled by the surrounding air
electricity can flow in a complete path

A fifth grade class has collected empty cans for recycling. They have several large bins with aluminum and steel cans, all mixed together. The two types of cans must be separated. Which of the following techniques could the students use to separate the two types of cans?
Place the cans in water, and the aluminum cans will float
Crush the cans to make them easier to carry
Test the cans for their ability to conduct electricity
Use a magnet to find and remove the steel cans
The table lists some physical properties of two objects.
Based on their properties, which of the objects is most likely a metal?
Object 1, because it is a solid that is less dense than water
Object 2, because all metals float in water
Object 2, because metals conduct thermal energy and electricity
Object 1, because it can be used to provide insulation for thermal energy
