What needs to be done to this circuit so that the lamp lights up?

close the switch

add another lamp

add a cell and close the switch

2.
What component does this circuit symbol represent?

cell

buzzer

capacitor

3.
Which switch or switches must be closed to make the lamps light?

only switch 1

only switch 2

switches 1 and 2

4.
If lamp 1 is unscrewed from its holder, what will happen to lamp 2?

it will get brighter

it will go out

it will stay the same brightness

5.
If lamp 1 is unscrewed from its holder, what will happen to lamp 2?

it will stay lit

it will go out

it will get dimmer

6.
What is wrong with this circuit diagram?

there is only one cell

the ammeter should be connected in series

a ammeter should be connected in parallel

7.
Which ammeter will have the biggest reading?

ammeter 1

ammeter 2

they will read the same

8.
Which statement about electric current is correct?
it always flows clockwise

it gets used up as it goes around the circuit

it does not get used up as it goes around the circuit

Which of these is the best way to measure a force?


using a force meter

using a ruler

Forces can be:


pushes only

pulls only

pushes and pulls

What is the unit of force called?


the newton, n

the newton, N

the neutron, N

Why does an astronaut weigh less on the Moon than on the Earth?
the Moon has no atmosphere.

the Moon has no gravity.

the force of gravity is weaker on the surface of the Moon than on the surface of
the Earth.

it decreases

it stays the same

it increases

Sinking and Floating


(a)

The children made shapes with modelling clay.


The solid ball sank.
The boat floated.

Look at the picture.


Write the names of the TWO forces a and b acting on the boat.
Force a ........................................
1 mark
Force b ........................................
1 mark

(b)

The ball and the boat each have a mass of 200g.


Explain how the forces a and b make the boat float.

(c)

Stacey made four hollow balls of modelling clay, each of 200 g.


She hung the balls from a forcemeter, first in the air, then in water.

What pattern do you notice between the size of the hollow balls and
the forcemeter readings in water?
