2.

Explain the process of energy transformation.

a)

Energy transformation is the process of converting matter into energy.

b)

Energy transformation involves changing the color of light energy.

c)

Energy transformation is the process of converting energy into sound waves.

d)

Energy transformation involves converting energy from one form to another, such as potential energy to kinetic energy or electrical energy to light energy.

3.

How can energy be conserved in daily life?

a)

By leaving all lights on 24/7

b)

By keeping windows open during winter

c)

By turning off lights when not in use, unplugging electronics, using energy-efficient appliances, insulating homes properly, and reducing water heating temperatures.

d)

By using energy-intensive appliances constantly

4.

Differentiate between potential and kinetic energy.

a)

Potential energy is energy in motion, while kinetic energy is stored energy.

b)

Potential energy is the energy of motion, while kinetic energy is the energy of position.

c)

Potential energy is stored energy, while kinetic energy is energy in motion.

d)

Potential energy is always positive, while kinetic energy can be negative.

5.

What does energy efficiency mean?

a)

Wasting energy unnecessarily

b)

Energy inefficiency

c)

Using more energy to achieve the same result

d)

Using less energy to provide the same service or achieve the same result.

6.

Give an example of potential energy in action.

a)

A car moving downhill

b)

A bird flying in the sky

c)

A ball held above the ground

d)

A book on a shelf

7.

Describe a scenario where energy transformation occurs.

a)

Energy transformation occurs when a person eats food and uses the stored energy to move and perform physical activities.

b)

Energy transformation occurs when a car runs on water instead of fuel.

c)

Energy transformation occurs when a plant converts sunlight into sound waves.

d)

Energy transformation occurs when a person watches TV and absorbs energy from the screen.

8.

Why is it important to conserve energy?

a)

Saving money is not a valid reason to conserve energy

b)

Conserving energy is not important

c)

It is important to conserve energy to reduce environmental impact and save money.

d)

Energy conservation has no impact on the environment

9.

How can energy efficiency help in reducing electricity bills?

a)

Energy efficiency reduces the amount of electricity needed to power appliances and devices, resulting in lower electricity bills.

b)

Energy efficiency has no impact on electricity bills.

c)

Energy efficiency increases the amount of electricity needed to power appliances and devices, resulting in higher electricity bills.

d)

Energy efficiency only works for certain types of appliances, not all.
