Which of the following is not a vector quantity?
momentum |
|
acceleration |
|
velocity |
|
mass |
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: \(\vec{v}\)
Leafy vegetables, beans, potatoes, fruits, and whole grains are good sources of:
protein |
|
saturated fat |
|
fiber |
|
unsaturated fat |
Fiber provides bulk to help the large intestine carry away waste. Good sources of fiber are leafy vegetables, beans, potatoes, fruits, and whole grains.
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.
ion |
|
molecule |
|
neutron |
|
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.
"The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
second |
|
fourth |
|
first |
|
third |
Newton's second law of motion states that The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. This law basically means that the greater the mass of an object, the more force is needed to overcome its inertia.
The ozone layer is in which of Earth's atmospheric layers?
stratosphere |
|
thermosphere |
|
mesosphere |
|
troposphere |
The stratosphere is just above the troposphere and is stratified in temperature with warmer layers higher and cooler layers closer to Earth. This increase in temperature is a result of absorption of the Sun's radiation by the ozone layer.
