Momentum is a measure of how difficult it is for a moving object to stop. Which of the following is the formula for momentum?
\(\vec{p} = {m \over \vec{v}}\) |
|
none of these |
|
\(\vec{p} = { \vec{v} \over m}\) |
|
\(\vec{p} = m\vec{v}\) |
Momentum is a measure of how difficult it is for a moving object to stop and is calculated by multiplying the object's mass by its velocity: \(\vec{p} = m\vec{v}\). Like velocity, momentum is a vector quantity as it expresses force applied in a specific direction.
The Rh factor antigen in blood determines:
blood type |
|
universal donor status |
|
postive or negative |
|
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.
In the water cycle, infiltration is most closely related to:
rivers |
|
water table |
|
runoff |
|
oceans |
The water then accumulates as runoff and eventually returns to bodies of water or is absorbed into the Earth (infiltration) and becomes part of the water table, an underground resevoir of fresh water.
In the heart, blood flows from the __________ ventricle to the lungs then back to the heart via the __________ atrium.
right, right |
|
left, left |
|
left, right |
|
right, left |
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.
