Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
left ventricle |
|
pulmonary vein |
|
aorta |
|
right atrium |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
Work is measured in:
horsepower |
|
watts |
|
amps |
|
joules or newton-meters |
Work is performed on an object when an applied force causes displacement along the same vector. Measured in joules (J) or newton-meters (Nm), work is calculated by multiplying force times displacement: \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)
Scalar quantities are fully described by which of the following?
a direction only |
|
a magnitude only |
|
a magnitude and a direction |
|
a magnitude and a polarity |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
A subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom. It carries a positive electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
proton |
|
neutron |
|
electron |
|
atom |
A proton is a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom. It carries a positive electric charge.
A __________ is the smallest multi-atom particle of an element or compound that can exist and still retain the characteristics of the element or compound.
neutron |
|
molecule |
|
ion |
|
isotope |
A molecule is the smallest multi-atom particle of an element or compound that can exist and still retain the characteristics of the element or compound. The molecules of elements consist of two or more similar atoms, the molecules of compounds consist of two or more different atoms.
