An element in the physical state of __________ maintains neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.
liquid |
|
plasma |
|
solid |
|
gas |
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.
An electrically charged atom is a(n):
electron |
|
ion |
|
neutron |
|
proton |
A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
In the heart, the __________ artery and vein manage blood flow to the lungs.
capillary |
|
atrial |
|
pulmonary |
|
aorta |
The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?
fourth |
|
second |
|
third |
|
first |
Newton's third law of motion states that For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force of equal magnitude in the opposite direction on the first object.
Vector quantities are fully described by which of the following?
a direction only |
|
a direction and a polarity |
|
a magnitude and a direction |
|
a magnitude only |
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: \(\vec{v}\)
