Science 5 Sound Sample Test

1. The document is a science test on sound for 5th grade students that contains 20 multiple choice questions about the production and perception of sound. 2. It tests students' understanding of how sounds are produced by vibrations, the role of sound sources and waves, how sound travels via different mediums, units used to measure sound, parts of the ear involved in hearing, uses of sonar, and effects of frequency and amplitude on pitch and loudness. 3. Students are also asked to draw a flow chart illustrating the process of how sounds are produced by a source, travel through different mediums, enter the ear, and are ultimately heard by the brain.
