Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.
acute, right, obtuse
An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.
In the pancreas, lipase converts fat to:
glycerol and fatty acids
The acids produced by the pancreas contain several enzymes that aid in digestion. Lipase converts fat to glycerol and fatty acids. Pancreatic amylase breaks down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars. Trypsin converts polypeptides (the building blocks of protein) into amino acids.
Which of the following is an improper fraction?
\({7 \over 5} \)
A rational number (or fraction) is represented as a ratio between two integers, a and b, and has the form \({a \over b}\) where a is the numerator and b is the denominator. An improper fraction (\({5 \over 3} \)) has a numerator with a greater absolute value than the denominator and can be converted into a mixed number (\(1 {2 \over 3} \)) which has a whole number part and a fractional part.
If AD = 29 and BD = 22, AB = ?
The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:
AD = AB + BD
Solving for AB:AB = AD - BDWhich of the following converts electrical energy into another form of energy in an electrical circuit?
load
A load is a source of resistance that converts electrical energy into another form of energy. The components of a microwave, for example, are loads that work together to convert household electricity into radation that can be used to quickly cook food.
These tools are called:
chisels
Wood chisels are used to shape or smooth wood surfaces. They come in a variety of widths and can be used with hand power or tapped with a mallet when deeper cuts need to be made.
Which of the following allows DC to pass easily but resists the flow of AC?
inductor
An inductor is coiled wire that stores electric energy in the form of magnetic energy and resists changes in the electric current flowing through it. If current is increasing, the inductor produces a voltage that slows the increase and, if current is decreasing, the magnetic energy in the coil opposes the decrease to keep the current flowing longer. In contrast to capacitors, inductors allow DC to pass easily but resist the flow of AC.
