1

"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?

69% Answer Correctly

fourth

second

first

third


Solution

Newton's third law of motion states that For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first object.


2

Convert 0C° to F°.

72% Answer Correctly

0

-32

16

32


Solution

To convert from C° to F° use:

\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)

\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)

\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)

The universal recipient blood type can recieve any other blood type. Which blood type is the universal recipient?

45% Answer Correctly

AB

AB-positive

O-negative

O


Solution

Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.


4

Materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called:

83% Answer Correctly

reflectors

refractors

insulators

conductors


Solution

Heat is always transferred from warmer to cooler environments and conduction is the simplest way this transfer can occur. It is accomplished through direct contact between materials and materials like metals that transfer heat efficiently are called conductors while those that conduct heat poorly, such as plastic, are called insulators.
