Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 4.31 Energy Transformations in Circuits skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Which summary best describes energy transformations in simple circuits?
AMotion can only come from pushing by hand.
BElectrical energy always stays electrical and never changes.
COnly bulbs transform energy.
DElectrical energy in simple devices can be changed into light, sound, heat, or motion depending on the component.
Solution & Explanation:Different components in simple circuits transform electrical energy into different useful outputs.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Which test plan would best show that one battery can power different outputs?
AUse different batteries for each device and guess the outputs.
BPut two batteries in a drawer and wait.
CConnect the same battery to a bulb, buzzer, motor, and heater one at a time and record what each does.
DOnly test the bulb because light is easiest to see.
Solution & Explanation:Testing one battery with different devices shows that the device determines whether the output is light, sound, heat, or motion.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Why should a battery-powered fan not be grouped with an electric heater?
AThe fan is larger.
BThe fan mainly changes electrical energy into motion, while the heater mainly changes it into heat.
CThe heater uses wires.
DThe fan is louder.
Solution & Explanation:The two devices have different main useful outputs, so they belong in different groups.
