1. In a physical change, the appearance of an object changes, but its chemical properties do not change. The substance
remains the same. In a chemical change, new substances with new physical and chemical properties are produced.
Crumpling a piece of paper is a physical change. Burning a piece of paper is a chemical change.
2. Sound and light are both forms of energy. They both travel in waves. Sound waves travel slower than light waves.
Sound waves are longitudinal, while light waves are transverse. Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum, but light
waves can.
3. No; in order for work to be done, a force mustmove through a distance. Although the person will use up a lot of energy,
the wall will not move, so no useful work will be done.
4. Weight is a measure of the pull of gravity on an object. The greater the mass of the object, the more it will weigh
5. The fire engine is moving toward you, causing the frequency, and pitch, of the sound waves from the siren to increase.
