100
A series circuit is all in a row, has one path for electricity, and when one light goes out, the circuit is broken.
What does a series circuit look like and what does it do when one light goes off?

A parallel circuit has
What is a parallel circuit, and what does it do when one light goes off?
300
The steepness of a line, calculated by using rise/run.
What is a slope?
300
False! The more the the thermal energy, the warmer, and the less thermal energy, the cooler!
True or false: The greater the thermal energy, the colder it is and the less thermal energy, the warmer.

6 seconds
Billy is riding his bike to his friends house. He rides 4 feet in 8 seconds. He then stops for 6 seconds, and continues driving until he gets to his friends house, which he is 4 feet away from. How many seconds does he drive before he stops?
400
Food before its eaten.
Give an example of Potential Energy.
500
A horizontal line, because it means no motion on a distance vs time graph.
John is running around his neighborhood. He runs 6 yards, and stops to pet his neighbors dog, which takes 25 seconds. He begins running again, for 30 more yards, until he gets back home. What type of line will be shown when he stops running?
