2

What type of cloud is responsible for fog?

63% Answer Correctly

cumulus

cirrus

cumulonimbus

stratus


Solution

Clouds are categorized based on their shape, size, and altitude. Stratus clouds are low-altitude clouds characterized by horizontal layering with a broad flat base. When stratus clouds occur on the ground the result is fog.


3

Which of the following is the formula for work?

47% Answer Correctly

\(W = {{F}\over{d}}\)

\(W = {F}{d}\)

\(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)

\(W = {\vec{F} \over \vec{d} }\)


Solution

Work is performed on an object when an applied force causes displacement along the same vector. Measured in joules (J) or newton-meter (Nm), work is calculated by multiplying force times displacement:  \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)


4

Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?

48% Answer Correctly

pulmonary vein

right atrium

left ventricle

aorta


Solution

To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.


5

62% Answer Correctly

omnivores

herbivores

carnivores

scavengers
