What is heat? A 100
How fast molecules move. The faster they move, the hotter they are! A 100
A 200 What is convection? Give an example.
Heat transfer through fluids (moves in a circular motion). Boiling water is an example of this type of heat transfer. A 200
What is an insulator? A 300
It keeps the heat in or out. Newspaper is the best! A 300
What is conduction? Give an example. A 400
Heat transfer through touch. Branding a cow is an example of this type of heat transfer. A 400
What makes a hot air balloon rise? A 500
The particles of air in the balloon move faster and faster, then move further apart and make the balloon lighter than air. A 500
What is reflection? Give an example. B 100
When light bounces back. Your reflection in the mirror is an example of reflection. B 100
Why does an apple appear to be red? B 200
The red in the light spectrum is being reflected while the other colors are being absorbed. B 200
What happens when light rays hit an uneven surface? B 300
The light rays are scattered in many different directions. B 300
What is the order of the colors in the light spectrum? B 400
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, and indigo. ROYGBIV! B 400
What is the meaning of translucent? B 500
A material that allows most light to pass through it; little is absorbed or reflected. B 500
What is sound? C 100
Vibrations in a medium (like air, solids or liquids). C 100
How do you make a HIGHER pitched sound on a bugle? C 200

What is the name of the top of a light or sound wave. C 300
A crest! C 300
C 400 DAILY DOUBLE Place A Wager
Draw and label a wavelength, including amplitude. C 400
Wavelength Amplitude Crest Trough CompressionRarefaction Crest Trough RarefactionCompression If you got the rarefaction and compression, you get a bonus of 50 points!
Jenny’s violin is out of tune. To fix it, she needs to lower the pitch. What should she do to the strings? C 500
Loosen the strings. C 500
