What is a push or pull?
Define force
|
What is pitch?
How high or low a sound is
|
What is straight?
Light travels in a ____________ path.
|
What is an open circuit?
Disconnecting a wire will make the bulbs go out and create this type of circuit.
|
What is transparent?
A window is an example of a (opaque, translucent, transparent) object because ALL of the light is able to pass through it.
|
|
What is kinetic?
A moving object has __________ energy.
|
What is amplitude, wavelength?
The height of the wave is called ______, while the distance between waves is called ______.
|
What is ROYGBIV (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet)?
The 7 colors of visible light are ______________
|
What is a closed circuit?
In this circuit, everything is connected and the energy is flowing.
|
What is conductor?
Kim has an open circuit. To close the circuit, Kim uses a penny. What is the penny (insulator, conductor)?
|
|
What is potential energy?
An object that is NOT moving has this type of stored energy
|
What is low, slow?
A LONG guitar string will create a _________ pitch and have ____________ vibrations.
|
What is opaque?
Cardboard is an example of a(n) ________ object, because NO light is able to pass through it.
|
negative to positive
Which direction does the electricity flow?
|
What is translucent?
A plastic bag is an example of a (opaque, translucent, transparent) object because SOME of the light is able to pass through it.
|
|
What is balanced?
Two students are pulling on a rope, but neither student is moving. Are the forces balanced or unbalanced?
|
What is high, fast?
A SHORT guitar string will create a _____________ pitch and have ___________ vibrations.
|
What is refraction?
When light goes into another state of matter (from the air to water), the light bends. This is called ________.
|
What is a series circuit?
In this type of circuit, there is ONLY ONE pathway for electricity to flow. Taking out one bulb will make the rest of the bulbs go out. Both bulbs are dimly lit.
|
What is insulator?
Sally has an open circuit. She wants to close the circuit, but when she uses a piece of cardboard, the light bulb will not light. What type of object did she use (insulator, conductor)?
|
|
What is book?
Samuel has to choose between picking up a TV or a book. He wants to pick up the item that requires the LEAST amount of force. Which object will he choose?
|
Decrease tightness (tension), make it thinner (thickness), and make it shorter (length)?
Name three changes you could make in order to create a HIGHER pitch
|
What is absorbs, reflects?
A banana is yellow because the banana _________ all of the colors, but only ______________ yellow.
|
What is a parallel circuit?
In this type of circuit, there is MORE than one pathway for electricity to flow. Taking out one bulb will NOT make the other bulbs go out. Both bulbs are brightly lit.
|
Mike needs to change the direction of one battery. He has the negative end of one battery going into the negative end of the other. Electricity flows from the negative to the positive. This is what it SHOULD look like: [+ -]------[+ -]
Mike made a circuit with two batteries, a bulb, and some wires. Here is his connection: Wire--bulb--wire--[+ -]---wire--[- +]-----Wire. Why does his circuit NOT work?
