Which of the following is the formula for work?
\(W = {\vec{F} \over \vec{d} }\) |
|
\(W = {F}{d}\) |
|
\(W = {{F}\over{d}}\) |
|
\(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\) |
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: \(W = \vec{F}\vec{d}\)
The dwarf planet Pluto is located where?
in the Kuiper Belt |
|
between the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn |
|
outside the solar system |
|
in the asteroid belt |
The Kuiper Belt is similar to the asteroid belt but much larger. Extending beyond the orbit of Neptune, it contains objects composed mostly of frozen methane, ammonia, and water. Most notably, the Kuiper Belt is home to Pluto, a dwarf planet that, until a 2006 reclassification, was considered the ninth planet of the solar system.
During digestion, where is digested food absorbed into the blood stream?
small intestine |
|
large intestine |
|
stomach |
|
pancreas |
The small intestine is where most digestion takes place. As food travels along the small intestine it gets broken down completely by enzymes secreted from the walls. These enzymes are produced in the small intestine as well as in the pancreas and liver. After the enzymes break down the food, the resulting substances are then absorbed into the blood via capillaries in the small intestine walls.
The number system most used in science is the:
American system |
|
English system |
|
British system |
|
metric system |
The metric system is a number system that designates one base unit for each type of measurement. For example, the base unit for length is the meter and the base unit for mass is the gram.
In cell biology, what part of the cell contains organelles?
cell wall |
|
cytoplasm |
|
cell membrane |
|
nucleus |
The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles.
