Read about Amber’s truck. Then answer questions 13.
The junkyard had a pile of junk. The pile was made of rub- ber tires and paper. It also had pieces of metal.
Amber drove her truck up to the pile. The crane had a big round magnet on a chain. The chain lowered the magnet over the
What did you learn about magnets from Amber’s sto- ry?
All strong magnets are round.
Magnets can move things without touching them.
Round magnets are stronger than bar magnets.
All magnets strength are the same.
Sam and Rob each held a bar magnet on a string. The magnets moved toward each other. What can you in- fer?
Opposite poles were facing each other.
Like poles were facing each other.
One magnet was not made of metal.
Both magnets was not made of metal.
Nicole moved a magnet closer and close to an iron bar. What did she find out?
The iron bar did not move.
The magnet become hot.
The iron bar moved toward the magnet.
II. FILL IN THE BLANKS WITH THE CORRECT ANSWER.
Use the words in the box below for number 1-7.
amount away direction down push pull force gravity
How do you move things? Think about the last time you threw a ball. You used a(n) (1) to move
the ball. A force is a(n) (2) or pull that makes objects move. When you (3) an object,
you move it closer to you. When you push an object, it moves (4) from you.
You can use forces to speed up or slow (5) an object. Friction force that slows some things down.
Forces can even change the (6) of an object’s motion. The force that pulls objects to Earth is called (7)
. The (8) of force that gravity pulls down on an object is called weight. People use forc-
es every day.
Use the words in the box below for number 9-15.
ramp repel lever friction poles iron magnetic
9. I am a force that slows down moving things. What am I? .
10. A hammer is a kind of _.
11. A slanted surface makes a .
12. Magnets attract things that are made of .
13. The two ends of a magnet where it’s pull is strongest is called _.
14. When N pole comes near another N pole, it will _.
15. The place around a magnet where its force pulls or pushes is called .
III. ANSWER THE QUESTIONS
1. What is gravity?
2. What happens to a moving things when the
direction of its force changes?
3. A. Draw an example where a ramp is used.
B. Draw a magnetic field around a bar magnet.
4. Name 2 things that a magnet can pull through.
5. Mention 3 uses of magnets in our daily life.
