Explications :

PASSIF:

BE ( au temps de la voix active ) + participe passé

Ici, toutes les phrases sont au prétérit :

was / were +participe passé

Le COD de la voix active devient sujet de la voix passive.

Le sujet de la voix active devient complément d'agent introduit par "by"

( le complément d'agent peut ne pas être exprimé lorsqu'il est sous-entenndu. )
