The rate of vibration of sound is called:
period |
|
volume |
|
amplitude |
|
frequency |
The rate of vibration of sound is called frequency and is measured in hertz (Hz). One hertz is one repetition per second and sounds with high frequency have a higher pitch than sounds with lower frequency. Humans can hear sounds in the range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
Which of the following is the formula for power?
\(P = w t\) |
|
\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\) |
|
\(P = {w \over t}\) |
|
\(P = \vec{w}t\) |
Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
Which of these layers is found directly below the Earth's crust?
mantle |
|
outer core |
|
continents |
|
inner core |
The crust is the Earth's outermost layer and is divided into oceanic and continental types. Oceanic crust is 3 miles (5 km) to 6 miles (10 km) thick and is composed primarily of denser rock. Continental crust is 20 to 30 miles (30 to 50 km) thick and composed primarily of less dense rock. The crust makes up approximately one percent of the Earth's total volume.
The Rh factor antigen in blood determines:
postive or negative |
|
universal donor status |
|
blood type |
|
universal recipient status |
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.
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 |
|
1 m/s to a mass of 1 kg |
|
1 m/s2 to a mass of 1 kg/s2 |
|
1 mph to a mass of 1 kg |
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.
