Double Jeopardy Jeopardy Round 1
Answer: This can be described by locating an object relative to another object or background. (Example: The stapler is on the right side of the desk.) What is the position of an object? Force, Motion, & Energy$100
Answer: This can be found by tracing and measuring an object’s position over time. (For example, the boat traveled 20 km north in 2 hours.) Words such as up, down, forward, and backward describe this. What is an object’s motion? Force, Motion, & Energy$200
What is speed? Answer: This describes how fast an object is moving. Force, Motion & Energy$300
Answer: This is the energy of motion. (For example, a football flying through the air.) What is kinetic energy? Force, Motion, and Energy$400
Answer: This is any push or pull that causes an object to move, stop, or change speed or direction. What is a force? Force, Motion, & Energy$500
Answer: Objects at rest have this kind of energy. (Example: an apple hanging on the branch of a tree or a book resting on a desk) What is potential energy? More FM&E$100
Answer: Unless acted on by this, objects in motion tend to stay in motion and objects at rest tend to stay at rest. What is a force? More FM&E$200
Answer: When two objects move/rub against each other, this and heat are created. What is friction? More FM&E$300
Answer: When you toast bread, the electrical energy of the toaster is converted to this type of energy. What is heat energy? More FM&E $400
Answer: A man pushes lightly on a box and the box does not move. In order to get the box to move, the man needs to increase this on the box. What is force? More FM&E$500
Answer: An electric current is created by a continuous flow of negative charges. The negative charges are knows as these. What are electrons? Electricity$100
Answer: This is the pathway taken by an electric current. What is a circuit? Electricity$200
Answer: These type of circuits allow the movement of electrical energy. What are closed circuits? Electricity$300
Answer: These circuits prevent the movement of electrical energy. What are open circuits? Electricity$400
Answer: Metals are known as these because they conduct electricity well. What are conductors? Electricity$500
Answer: Rubber, plastic, and wood are examples of these because they do not conduct electricity well. What are insulators? More Electricity$100
Answer: If one light bulb goes out on a strand of lights and the other lights remain lit, the lights are on this type of circuit because there are two or more pathways for the current to follow. What is a parallel circuit? More Electricity $200
Answer: If one light bulb goes out on a strand of lights and the other go out as well, the lights are on this type of circuit because there is only one pathway for the current to follow. What is a series circuit? More Electricity$300
Answer: The picture is an example of this type of circuit. What is an open circuit? More Electricity$400
Answer: This picture is an example of this type of circuit. What is a closed circuit? More Electricity$500
Answer: Rubbing a balloon on your hair or a wool sweater creates this type of electricity. What is static electricity? Even More Electricity$100
Answer: Lightning is a discharge of this type of electricity into the atmosphere. What is static electricity? Even More Electricity$200
Answer: This creates a magnetic field, and a moving magnetic field creates an electric current. What is an electric current? Even More Electricity$300
Answer: Wrapping a wire around a nail and creating a closed circuit is an example of this. What is an electromagnet? Even More Electricity$400
Answer: When a ceiling fan is turned on, electrical energy is being converted to this type of energy. What is mechanical energy? Even More Electricity$500
Final Jeopardy Double Jeopardy!
Answer: This person invented the light bulb. Who is Thomas Edison? Important Discoveries$200
Answer: This scientist was the first to learn that lightning was a form of electricity. Who is Benjamin Franklin? Important Discoveries$400
Answer: This scientist made important discoveries about the magnetic field and the electromagnet. Who is Michael Faraday? Important Discoveries$600
Answer: We believed that the Earth was the center of the solar system, and the planets and sun revolved around us. Who are the ancient Greeks? (or, who are Aristotle and Ptolemy?) Important Discoveries$800
Answer: We tried to convince the world that the sun was actually the center of the solar system, and all of the planets revolved around it. Who are Copernicus and Galileo? (you get the points if you named 1!) Important Discoveries$1000
Answer: The weight of air causes this. What is air pressure? Weather$200
Answer: This is the measure of the amount of heat energy in the atmosphere. What is a temperature? Weather$400
Answer: Air circulates around the Earth in these big chunks. What are air masses? Weather$600
Answer: The boundary between two air masses is called this. What is a front? Weather$800
Answer: A falling barometer means this kind of weather is ahead. What is rainy? Weather$1000
