You would measure the amount of voltage between two points in a circuit with a(n):
voltmeter
Voltage (V) is the electrical potential difference between two points. A voltmeter is used to measure the voltage between two points in a circuit.
Which of blood component fights infection?
white blood cells
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
What type of load creates different stresses at different locations on a structure?
non-uniformly distributed load
A concentrated load acts on a relatively small area of a structure, a static uniformly distributed load doesn't create specific stress points or vary with time, a dynamic load varies with time or affects a structure that experiences a high degree of movement, an impact load is sudden and for a relatively short duration and a non-uniformly distributed load creates different stresses at different locations on a structure.
Coolant is circulated through the engine by the:
water pump
The water pump is driven by a belt connected to the crankshaft and ensures that coolant moves through the engine and radiator.
In the metric system, what prefix represents 10-3?
milli
In the metric system, milli is the prefix for 10-3.
Water freezing or boiling is an example of which of the following?
phase transition
A substance undergoes a phase transition when it moves from one state of matter to another, for example, when water freezes or boils.
What is 7a3 + 7a3?
To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.
7a3 + 7a3 = 14a3
When compared to eukaryotic cells, prokaryotic cells are:
less complex
Cells are classified into one of two groups based on whether or not they have a nucleus. Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus, prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and therefore have a less complex structure than eukaryotic cells.
Which of the following states of matter exists at the lowest temperature?
solid
Solids exist at a lower temperature than liquids which exist at a lower temperature than gases.
"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
first
Also known as the law of inertia, Newton's first law of motion states that An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
