ANSWER

TRUE or FALSE: A battery-powered car uses chemical energy.

QUESTION

• What is: TRUE, TRUE, TRUE!!

ANSWER

• This is the type of energy that a person uses when pedaling a bicycle.

QUESTION

• What is: Mechanical Energy

ANSWER

• These are the forms of energy that are produced when a candle is burned.

QUESTION

• What is: heat and light energy.

ANSWER

• A student rubs a stick across the teeth of a comb. The mechanical energy is being changed into this form of energy.

QUESTION

• What is: Chemical Energy

ANSWER

• TRUE or FALSE: Having red paint on a wagon help to best reduce the force needed to move the wagon.

QUESTION

• What is: FALSE, having wheels on a wagon will best reduce the amount of force needed to move a wagon, not the color of the wagon.

ANSWER

• There are three balls with different weights and are rolled down an incline one at a time. They each strike a wooden block at the bottom of the inclined plane. The ball with the ________ weight will move the block the greatest distance.
