An element in the physical state of __________ maintains neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
gas |
|
liquid |
|
plasma |
|
solid |
The gaseous state occurs at a higher temperature range than the solid and liquid states of the same substance. In this state, molecules flow very freely around each other and will spread out as far as they're able. Gases maintain neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
Which of the following states of matter exists at the highest temperature?
gas |
|
solid |
|
liquid |
|
none of these |
Solids exist at a lower temperature than liquids which exist at a lower temperature than gases.
The brain and spinal cord make up the __________ nervous system.
somatic |
|
central |
|
autonomic |
|
peripheral |
The nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system) and the peripheral nervous system which is the network of nerve cells (neurons) that collect and distribute signals from the central nervous system throughout the body.
"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?
first |
|
third |
|
second |
|
fourth |
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.
Large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top describe which of the following?
fog |
|
cumulus clouds |
|
stratus clouds |
|
cirrus clouds |
Cumulus clouds are large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top. These clouds grow upward and can develop into a cumulonimbus or thunderstorm cloud.
