- Q1A string of lights with small bulbs is shown below. The bulbs are connected by the wire. When the lights are on, electricity travels in —a light raya complete circuita sound wavean incomplete path60s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q2The diagram shows a series circuit with three lit bulbs. How many of the bulbs will remain lit if the wire is cut at the point shown by the arrow?302160s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q3A group of students built the circuit shown below. The lightbulb does not glow. Which statement explains this observation?The circuit does not have a switch.The battery is not charged.The bell uses most of the energy from the battery.The lightbulb is not part of a complete circuit.60s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q4A simplified diagram of a system using solar energy is shown. To recharge the battery for later use without lighting the bulb, which of the following switches should be closed?Switches R and S onlySwitch S onlySwitches R, S, and TSwitches R and T only60s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q5All the lightbulbs in this circuit are lit. Which change would cause all the bulbs to go out?Removing Wires 2 and 4Removing Wires 3 and 4Removing Wire 1Removing Wires 2 and 560s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q6Students constructed a circuit using different-colored lightbulbs. What will happen if Switch 3 is closed and the other switches are left open?Only the white bulb will operate.None of the bulbs will operateOnly the white and yellow bulbs will operate.Only the red and blue bulbs will operate.60s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q7This circuit has three lightbulbs and a bell. Which procedure will result in only the blue lightbulbs operating?Close Switches 2 and 3 and leave Switch 1 openClose Switch 2 and leave Switches 1 and 3 openClose Switch 3 and leave Switches 1 and 2 openClose Switches 1 and 2 and leave Switch 3 open60s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q8The diagram shows an electric circuit with four bells that a student plans to build. When the student connects the wires as shown, which of the bells will ring?Bells 1, 2, 3, and 4Bells 3 and 4 onlyBells 1 and 4 onlyBell 1 only60s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
- Q9In some circuits that are used for decorating, one burned-out lightbulb will prevent all the other lightbulbs from lighting. In other circuits, one burned-out lightbulb will have no effect on the other lightbulbs. In which of these circuits will the other lightbulbs still light even if one bulb is burned out?A series circuitAn incomplete circuitAn open circiuta parallel circuit60s5.6.B: Force, Motion and Energy
