Grade 4 - Science - On Level

NameDate

  1. A marble moved 1 m/s in Trial A and 5 m/s in Trial B. Which claim fits the evidence?

    • the faster marble has more energy of motion
    • both trials must transfer no energy
    • the slower trial has more energy of motion
    • speed does not affect motion energy

  2. A toy car rolls toward a target. What prediction follows from the speed data?

    • the faster toy car will knock over more pins
    • the slower object will always move the target farther
    • speed cannot be used to predict the collision
    • the target will move only if the object is stopped

  3. When the moving skateboard hits another object, what happens to energy?

    • energy disappears instead of moving
    • energy transfers from the skateboard to the foam block
    • only light energy can transfer during a collision
    • the stopped object gives all its energy to the moving object first

  4. Which evidence best supports the claim "the faster skateboard has more energy of motion"?

    • The cup was part of the test.
    • The object had a name.
    • Trial A happened first.
    • Trial B was faster than Trial A for the same skateboard.

  5. Which fair test would compare energy of motion for the marble?

    • choose the result before testing
    • change the object, ramp, target, and surface all at once
    • measure color instead of motion
    • use the same object at different speeds and measure how far the target moves

  6. A toy car moved 3 m/s in Trial A and 8 m/s in Trial B. Which claim fits the evidence?

    • the slower trial has more energy of motion
    • the faster toy car has more energy of motion
    • speed does not affect motion energy
    • both trials must transfer no energy

  7. A marble rolls toward a target. What prediction follows from the speed data?

    • the faster marble will move the block farther
    • the target will move only if the object is stopped
    • the slower object will always move the target farther
    • speed cannot be used to predict the collision

  8. When the moving cart hits another object, what happens to energy?

    • energy disappears instead of moving
    • only light energy can transfer during a collision
    • the stopped object gives all its energy to the moving object first
    • energy transfers from the moving cart to the cup

  9. Which evidence best supports the claim "the faster soccer ball has more energy of motion"?

    • The object had a name.
    • Trial A happened first.
    • Trial B was faster than Trial A for the same soccer ball.
    • The cup was part of the test.

  10. Which fair test would compare energy of motion for the rubber ball?

    • choose the result before testing
    • measure color instead of motion
    • change the object, ramp, target, and surface all at once
    • use the same object at different speeds and measure how far the target moves
