General Questions
What did you observe in the video?
Define Observe?
To observe is to watch and listen to something carefully.
Name how your group made the car move?
By applying the force yourself.
Why does the marble move when it is started on an incline track?
Gravity is pulling it down.
Complete this statement: An object at rest wants to-
Stay at rest:
What game were Mylo, Suzie, and Angilina playing in the introduction story?
Flashlight tag.
Define Claims?
Statements about something that answer a question.
What type of force was needed for the car to move?
A pull. You pulled it back to wind it up.
Does it take more or less energy for the ball to roll slower?
Less energy is applied.
Finish the statement: An object in motion wants to-
Stay in motion:
Is light, sound, and something moving all energy?
Yes.
Define Evidence:
Facts or observations that support the claim.
Name two ways you got the marble to move on the track?
By applying the force yourself, pushing it down the track. By slanting the track and making it inclined.
How did the speed of the ball affect the cups?
The faster the ball was moving, the more energy it had, and the more cups it could knockdown.
What happens to an object that's in motion, to make it stop.
Friction is eventually stopping it, or if another force is applied.
Why is energy essential?
We use energy to everyday simple acts, such as brushing our teeth. We also rely on energy for most our daily activities and appliances.
Define Speed:
Speed is the rate at which something or someone moves or travels.
Give an example of how energy created sound.
By bowling and applying that force, once the ball hit the cups we can hear the impact.
Where does energy come from when we turn on a switch? Name how a circuit works?
Electricity.
A closed circuit allows electricity to flow through; an open circuit does not allow electricity to flow through it. Since electricity can't jump a gap.
Compare how a slingshot and the toy car worked similarly.
Both need a force (pull) to generate the energy to turn the car or rock into kinetic energy once both are released.
Define Collision:
When two objects bump into each other.
How does the energy stick work?
It's an open circuit, once you put both hands on it, you make it a closed circuit. Current is running through your body.
Name how energy transfer worked while bowling? Have to name the entire progression, starting with the ball.
You applied the force to push the ball towards the cups, the kinetic energy from the ball hit the first cup, causing a chain reaction of converting the cups from potential energy to kinetic energy once hit. One cup may have hit another cup and so on.
