Molecules and atoms that are outputs from a chemical reaction are known as which of the following?
side effects |
|
results |
|
products |
|
reactants |
During a chemical reaction molecules and atoms (reactants) are rearranged into new combinations that result in new kinds of atoms or molecules (products).
Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
|
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
The process of diffusion allows __________ to exchange oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste between blood and the body's cells.
arteries |
|
red blood cells |
|
capillaries |
|
veins |
Capillaries are small thin-walled vessels that permit the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste between blood and the body's cells. This process of exchange is called diffusion.
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. Which of these is the formula for acceleration?
\(\vec{a} = { \vec{v} \over t }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = \Delta \vec{v} t \) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { t \over \Delta \vec{v} }\) |
|
\(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\) |
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. In physics, the delta symbol (\(\Delta\)) represents change so the formula for acceleration becomes \(\vec{a} = { \Delta \vec{v} \over t }\)
A major difference between sound waves and light waves is which of the following?
a sound wave cannot travel through a vacuum |
|
a sound wave is much slower than a light wave |
|
a sound wave is mechanical while a light wave is electromagnetic |
|
all of these are correct |
A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.
