A. Solid – Liquid - Gas B. Gas – Solid - Liquid
C. Liquid – Gas - Solid D. Gas – Liquid – Solid

12. If the sound waves have a large amplitude, the sound will be ____.
A. soft B. high pitch C. loud D. Low pitch

13. Which of the following describes the nature of light according to Louis de Broglie?
A. wave and point B. wave and energy C. particle and wave D. particle and energy

C. Touching a stove and being burned. D. Ice cooling down your hand

19. Karen was asked by her science teacher if the movement of sound can be faster in solid
than in liquid. She answered yes. Is Karen correct?
A. No, because sound travels faster in liquid than in solid.
B. No, because solid and liquid have the same speed of sound.
C. Yes, because solid components are more elastic than liquid.
D. Yes, because the molecules are more compressed in solid than in liquid.

20. Violet light has the highest frequency among the visible light colors. Is its frequency directly
proportional to its wavelength?
A. No, because the longer wavelength the higher its frequency
B. No, because wavelength is always inversely proportional to frequency.
C. Yes, because the longer the wavelength the higher the frequency of visible light colors
D. Yes, because the wavelength and frequency of visible light colors are directly
proportional to each other

B. MODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. Write TRUE if the statement is correct. If the statement is
wrong, change the underlined word to make the statement correct. .
21. Light can travel through vacuum.
22. Speed is defined as the distance covered in time.
23. Conduction is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves.
24. Pitch is directly proportional to frequency
25. Barometer is used to measure the speed of a vehicle
26. Speed, pitch, and loudness are properties of sound.
27. Insulators are good heat conductors.
28. Convection is defined as the transfer of heat in liquids or gases by means of
current set up within the heated fluid.
29. Charging by friction simply means rubbing of material to another.
30. Like charges attract.
