Every time Sonya and Sasha go camping, their lights don't last very long when it turns dark out. They want this light so they can read at their campsite. They brainstorm ways they can design a solar powered light that will last the longest and solve their problem. What steps should they take first to find the most effective solution?
Test only the design that is the cheapest to make.
Ask their friends which design they think will work best.
Test different designs and choose the design that works the best.
Test only the design that is the easiest to make.
A town relies on water from a dam nearby to provide electricity. Explain the energy in this example.
Motion energy from the water is transformed into electrical energy.
Motion energy from the water is transformed into sound energy.
Electrical energy from the water is transformed into motion energy.
Electrical energy from the water is transformed into electrical energy.
How does this lamp use energy?
Light energy converts to electrical energy.
Heat energy is transformed into electricity.
Electrical energy causes motion energy.
Electrical energy is converted to light and heat energy.
How was the sound produced when the book hit the floor?
Electrical energy was produced when the book hit the floor. This produced a sound.
Energy of motion from the falling book was converted to heat. The heat produced a sound.
Electrical energy was produced as the book fell to the floor, which caused a sound to be produced.
Energy of motion from the falling book was transferred to the floor, which caused a sound to be produced.
What type of cooker do Gina and Jordan decide to use?

Knowledge about energy transfer
Knowledge about weather patterns
Knowledge about gardening
Which is the best argument in favor of using the solar cooker?
Solar cookers get hotter than electric ovens.
Solar cookers are easier to use than electric ovens.
Solar cookers are more reliable than electric ovens.
Solar cookers are better for the environment than electric ovens.
Which statement provides the best evidence for the benefits of cooking with a solar oven?
Solar cookers are powered by the sun, which makes them much easier to control than electric ovens.
Solar cookers are powered by wind energy instead of gas. Wind energy is a renewable and clean energy source.
Solar cookers are powered by gas instead of energy from the sun. Unlike energy from the sun, gas is a renewable source of energy.
Solar cookers are powered by energy from the sun. Using energy from the sun is cleaner than burning gas, and the sun is a renewable source of energy.
Part A – Which of the following best describes what they should do?
The solar cooker should be placed near the house so they can plug it in.
The solar cooker should be placed in a location where the wind is blowing.
The solar cooker should be placed in the house because it is warmer inside.
The solar cooker should be placed in a location that gets as much sunlight as possible.
Part B – Which best supports your answer to Part A?
The solar cooker will use wind energy to cook the food.
The solar cooker will use the heat from inside the home to cook the food.
The solar cooker will use electrical energy and convert it to heat energy to cook the food.
The solar cooker will use light energy from the sun and convert it to heat to cook the food.
Why do Gina and Jordan decide to replace the white surface inside the cooker with a darker material?
Dark materials absorb more light and heat.
Dark materials reflect more light and heat.
White materials absorb more light and heat.
White materials do not affect light and heat.
What does Jordan think about wrapping the cooker with newspaper?
It is necessary to keep heat from escaping.
It is not necessary because heat will not escape.
It will make the cooker look better.
It will make the cooker heavier.
