    When the picture from a tv moves to your eyes in waves.

    • Thermal energy

    • Light energy

    • Sound energy

    • Chemical energy

    • Electric energy

    Correct Answer
    A. Light energy
    Explanation
    When the picture from a TV moves to your eyes in waves, it implies the transmission of visual information through electromagnetic waves. These waves carry photons, which are particles of light energy. Therefore, the correct answer is light energy.

    What is mechanical energy and what type is it is it potential energy or kinetic energy?

    • It is potential energy and it is when energy is forced into a shape different from its natural shape.

    • It is kinetic energy and it is the energy that moving objects have.

    • It is potential energy is the energy an object has when it is in a elavated in a possition.

    • It is kinetic energy and it is the movement of molecules of matter.

    Correct Answer
    A. It is kinetic energy and it is the energy that moving objects have.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that mechanical energy is kinetic energy and it is the energy that moving objects have. This is because mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. Potential energy refers to the energy an object has due to its position or shape, while kinetic energy refers to the energy an object has due to its motion. In the given explanation, it states that mechanical energy is the energy that moving objects have, which aligns with the definition of kinetic energy.

    For the next 7 questions pick which anwser it the right type      When enegy is stored into a shape different from its natural shape.

    • Thermal energy

    • Gravational energy

    • Elastic energy

    • Thermal energy

    • Light energy

    Correct Answer
    A. Elastic energy
    Explanation
    Elastic energy is the correct answer because it refers to the energy stored in an object when it is deformed or stretched from its natural shape. This energy is potential energy that can be released when the object returns to its original shape. Thermal energy, gravitational energy, and light energy are not related to the concept of storing energy in a different shape.

    A coil that is magnetized only when an electric current flows thorugh it is

    • A battery

    • A generator

    • A conductor

    • An electromagnet

    Correct Answer
    A. An electromagnet
    Explanation
    An electromagnet is a coil that becomes magnetized when an electric current flows through it. Unlike a permanent magnet, which always has a magnetic field, an electromagnet's magnetism can be controlled by the flow of electric current. When the current is turned off, the coil loses its magnetism. This property makes electromagnets useful in various applications, such as in electric motors, speakers, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines.

    What are the right kinds of kinetic energy?

    • Elastic,sound,chemical,thermal,gravacational

    • Thermal,mechanical,electric,light,sound

    • Elastic,chemical,gavacational

    • Thermal,light,sound,electric

    Correct Answer
    A. Thermal,mechanical,electric,light,sound
    Explanation
    The correct answer includes thermal, mechanical, electric, light, and sound as the right kinds of kinetic energy. Thermal energy refers to the energy associated with the motion of particles in a substance. Mechanical energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion or position. Electric energy is the energy associated with the movement of electric charges. Light energy is the energy carried by electromagnetic waves. Sound energy is the energy produced by the vibrations of objects.

    When plants absorb light and store it as...........

    • Light energy

    • Sound energy

    • Chemical energy

    • Thremal energy

    • Mechanical

    Correct Answer
    A. Chemical energy
    Explanation
    Plants absorb light energy through a process called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose. This chemical energy is stored in the plant's cells and is used for various metabolic processes, growth, and reproduction. Therefore, the correct answer is chemical energy.

    What is a electic charge?

    • When a object gains electrons.

    • When a object loses electons.

    • When an object gains or loses electrons.

    Correct Answer
    A. When an object gains or loses electrons.
    Explanation
    Electric charge refers to the property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. This force can be either attractive or repulsive, depending on the type of charge. When an object gains or loses electrons, it becomes charged. Electrons are negatively charged particles, so when an object gains electrons, it acquires a negative charge, and when it loses electrons, it acquires a positive charge. Therefore, the correct answer is "When an object gains or loses electrons."

    What is energy?

    Correct Answer
    Energy is the ablity to cause changes in matter.
    Explanation
    The correct answer explains that energy is the ability to cause changes in matter. This means that energy has the power to bring about transformations or make things happen in the physical world. It implies that energy can be transferred or converted from one form to another, and it plays a fundamental role in various processes such as movement, heat generation, and chemical reactions.

    What is energy?

    Correct Answer
    Energy is the abilty to cause changes in matter.
    Explanation
    The answer provided accurately defines energy as the ability to cause changes in matter. Energy is a fundamental concept in physics and refers to the capacity of a system to do work or produce heat. It can exist in various forms such as kinetic, potential, thermal, electrical, and chemical energy. By possessing energy, an object or system can initiate or undergo changes, such as motion, temperature change, or chemical reactions, within itself or in its surroundings.
