Ms. Dai Class Trivia
100

After rubbing a balloon against a sweater, what is the overall charge of the sweater?

Overall positive (less electrons)

100

True or False. An electromagnet is an example of a permanent magnet. 

False. An electromagnet is a temporary magnet that can be turned on and off. 

100

What is another name for stored energy?

Potential energy

100

Which travels faster in air? Light or sound

Light

100

On the title slide for every lesson, the "homework" section was called...

Assignments OR To-Do (It's not really homework if you finish your assignment before you go home)

200

Why do electrons transfer instead of protons or neutrons?

Their location on the outside of atoms...easier to remove than the protons and neutrons in the nucleus (center)

200

What type of energy is needed in order to produce a magnetic field?

Electricity/electric current

200

What type of energy moves through the wires of a closed circuit?

Electrical/electricity

200

Name an example of a wave that does not require a medium to travel.

Light (Electromagnetic Waves)

200

What five class periods did Ms. Dai teach this year?

1,3,4,6,7

300

What will two overall negatively charged objects do?

Repel (go apart)

300

What 3 materials are needed to make a basic electromagnet?

Power source (Ex: Battery)

Conductor (Ex: Wire)

Core 

300

What type of potential energy is in the food we eat?

Chemical

300

What about a sound wave determines the volume of the sound heard?

Amplitude (Height)

300

Identify the red, yellow, green and blue corners from our 4 Corners Kahoot games. 

Red (corner with the fire extinguisher)

Yellow (corner with the puzzle table)

Blue (reading corner)

Green (corner with the boxlight)

400

How does a negatively charged object become neutral again?

By discharging (getting rid of the negative charges)

400

Identify 2 ways to strengthen an electromagnet.

Increase current

Increase voltage

Increase number of coils/wraps

400

Provide two other ways to say "radiant energy". 

Light

Electromagnetic energy

400
What three colors of light combine to make white light?

Red, Green, Blue

400

What are the full names of the two mini pumpkin class pets?

Beatrice the V and Trisha the VI, friend of Michelle and all

500

How is a negatively charged balloon able to stick to a neutrally charged wall?

The protons of the wall are attracted to the electrons of the balloon.

500

Name 3 ferromagnetic materials that could be used as an electromagnet core.

Steel, nickel, iron, cobalt, neodymium

500

Why is sound considered a type of kinetic energy?

Sound travels through vibrating particles of the medium. Vibrations are a type of motion, hence kinetic energy.

500

What is the range of human hearing, in Hertz (Hz)

20-20,000 Hz

500

Currently, how many students are in Ms. Dai's science class across all 5 periods? (Will accept + or - 5 students)

128 students
