Energy Transfer Practice Tests
These Grade 5 Science practice tests help students identify energy forms and explain how energy moves or changes. Students study kinetic and potential energy, thermal transfer, conduction, convection, radiation, light, sound, electrical systems, and evidence from investigations.
Skills covered
- Identifying kinetic, potential, chemical, electrical, light, sound, and thermal energy
- Explaining energy transfer and transformation
- Distinguishing conduction, convection, and radiation
- Describing how light and sound transfer energy
- Tracing energy through batteries, circuits, motors, and lamps
- Testing insulation and other energy questions fairly
- Using measurements, observations, and safety practices
How to use these practice tests
Look for evidence of motion, heating, light, sound, or electrical action. For thermal questions, identify the warmer and cooler objects and decide whether energy transfers by contact, moving fluid, or waves.
