Let’s go through each question one by one and think about what kind of energy is shown.
---
Question 1: Fire with logs and smoke
Fire gives off heat. When you sit near a fire, you feel warm — that’s because it’s releasing thermal energy (heat energy). It might also give light and sound, but the main type of energy we associate with fire in this context is
thermal energy.
So, correct answer:
C – Thermal energy

Question 2: Drum being played with musical notes
When you hit a drum, it vibrates and makes sound. The musical notes floating above show that sound is being produced. So this is clearly about
sound energy.
Correct answer:
A – Sound energy

Question 3: Laptop computer
A laptop runs on electricity. Even though it may get warm (thermal) or make sounds (like fans), its main source of energy to work is electrical. You plug it in or use a battery — both are forms of electrical energy.
Correct answer:
D – Electrical energy

Question 4: Soccer player kicking a ball
The player is moving — so they have
kinetic energy (energy of motion). Also, when the ball is in the air or about to be kicked, it has potential energy (stored energy due to position). Since the image shows action — running and kicking — it includes both types: potential (before kick or during motion) and kinetic (during movement).
Correct answer:
A – Potential and kinetic energy

Final Answer:
1. C
2. A
3. D
4. A
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of worksheet on energy.
