1

Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of:

58% Answer Correctly

1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg/s2

1 mph to a mass of 1 kg

1 m/s to a mass of 1 kg

1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg


Solution

Weight is a force that describes the attraction of gravity on an object. Force is measured in newtons (N) with 1 N being the force required to impart an acceleration of 1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg.


2

Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue that connect muscles to the skeleton are called:

71% Answer Correctly

tendons

cartilage

ligaments

vertebra


Solution

Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue called tendons connect muscles to the skeleton while another type of connective tissue called ligaments connect bones to other bones at joints (elbow, knee, fingers, spinal column).


3

50°F is how many °C?

72% Answer Correctly

-10

10

58

122


Solution

The formula to convert from F° to C° is:

\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)

plugging in our values gives:

\(C° = {5 \over 9} (50 - 32)\)

\(C° = {5 \over 9} (18)\)

\(C° = {90 \over 9}\)

\(C° = 10\)


4

Which of the following is the formula for power?

56% Answer Correctly

\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\)

\(P = w t\)

\(P = \vec{w}t\)

\(P = {w \over t}\)


Solution

Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time:  \(P = {w \over t}\)  and is measured in watts (W).


5

Antigens are found on the outside of which blood cells?

54% Answer Correctly

plasma

white

red

platelets


Solution

Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
