A boy rides a skateboard. Which statement best describes how his energy changes as he moves?

a)

Potential energy increases from point X to point Y and kinetic energy decreases from point Y to point Z.

b)

Potential energy decreases from point X to point Y and kinetic energy decreases from point Y to point Z.

c)

Kinetic energy of his motion from point X to point Y is converted to a force that moves him up the hill to point Z

d)

Potential energy of his motion from point X to point Y is converted to a force that moves him up the hill to point Z

2.

According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, when a hammer strikes and exerts a force on a nail, the nail...

a)

creates a friction with the hammer

b)

disappears into the wood

c)

exerts an equal force back on the hammer

d)

moves at a constant speed

3.

Caitlyn, Corona, and Inyoung take turns hitting a ball with the same bat. At the moments that they hit the balls, their bats are swinging at different speeds. Whose bat hits the ball with the most force?

a)

Caitlyn, whose bat is speeding up at the moment it hits the ball.

b)

Corona, whose bat is slowing down at the moment it hits the ball.

c)

Inyoung, whose bat is swinging at a steady speed at the moment it hits the ball.

d)

All three will hit the ball with the same amount of force.

4.

Priyanka held two magnets together and noticed a force between them. This force surrounding a magnet is known as the magnetic

a)

surface

b)

surrounding

c)

field

5.

The closer you are to the magnet the

weaker

b)

stronger

6.

Claire threw the ball and it hit her mother's vase. Energy transferred from the moving ball to the stationary vase, causing the vase to knock over. This is an example of Energy Transfer. Which laws can also be used to describe these actions? Check all that apply.

a)

Universal Law of Gravitation

b)

Newton's Laws of Motion

c)

The Law of Conservation of Energy

d)

Hubble's Law of Cosmic Expansion

7.

Neil is an astronaut. At the doctor's office, his weight was 180 pounds. When Neil landed on the moon, his steps were lighter and his weight was only 30 pounds. Consider this evidence and develop a claim as to why the change occurred.

b)

The force becomes weaker

c)

The force remains the same
