Create a energy treasure hunt for Ages 7-8
What form of energy is in a battery?
Chemical energy Mechanical energy Solar Wind energy
Why do you need more energy to cycle uphill?
You have to work against gravity The air is thinner It is colder There is more wind
What energy change takes place in a light bulb?
Electrical energy becomes light and heat Light energy becomes electrical energy Heat becomes light energy Chemical energy becomes light energy
Why does a bouncing ball get less high after each bounce?
Some of the energy is lost as heat and noise The ball becomes heavier Gravity gets stronger The ball loses air

Elastic energy Magnetic energy Chemical energy Electrical energy
Why does a phone get hot when you use it for a long time?
Electrical energy is partly converted into heat Through your body heat Through the sunlight By the wind
Create a energy treasure hunt for Ages 11-12
Which factor has the MOST influence on the kinetic energy of a moving object?
The speed The masses The direction Time
A mountain climber hoists himself up 100 metres. What type of work is he doing?
Labour against gravity Work with gravity No labour Only labour against friction
A windmill is stopped at wind force 1. Why is it not turning?
Wind power is too small to overcome friction There is no wind The windmill is broken Wind force 1 is too strong
Why does a car get hot after driving for a long time, even though the engine is cooled?
Not all fuel energy is converted into kinetic energy, some becomes heat The tyres rub the tarmac and warm up the whole car Sun shines on car and warms engine The cooling system backfires and heats up the car
Why can't you convert 100% of the energy in petrol into motion?
Some is always lost as heat Petrol does not have enough energy The engine is too small Friction takes away all energy
Which factor determines how much potential energy an object has?
Mass, height and gravity Only the masses Only the height Mass and speed
What is the difference between power and energy?
Power is energy per unit time Power and energy are the same Energy is power per unit time Power is for electrical appliances only
Why do mountain peaks have lower temperatures despite being closer to the sun?
Air pressure is lower and can retain less heat They are actually further from the sun Mountains do not absorb sunlight Gravity is different
Create a energy treasure hunt for Ages 13-14

What form of energy does sound have?
Mechanical wave energy Electromagnetic energy Chemical energy Nuclear energy
Why does a car battery get warm while charging, even though electrical energy is being supplied?
Because of internal resistance, part of the electrical energy is lost as heat The chemical reactions in the battery are always exothermic The electrical energy is first fully converted into heat before it is stored Induction produces heat in the metal parts
