0 |
To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)
\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)
What kind of weather front is likely to create clouds and storms?
temperate front |
|
stationary front |
|
warm front |
|
cold front |
A warm front is the boundary between warm and cool (or cold) air when the warm air is replacing the cold air. Warm air at the surface pushes above the cool air mass creating clouds and storms.
Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
|
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
|
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.
Which of these is not a recognized blood type?
O |
|
AB |
|
AO |
|
B |
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.
Which of the following is not true of light waves?
can travel through a vacuum |
|
travel faster than sound waves |
|
are electromagnetic waves |
|
are mechanical waves |
Unlike mechanical sound waves that require a physical medium for propagation, light waves are electromagnetic and can travel through empty space. Light waves are also much faster, travelling at 186,000 m/s vs. 343 m/s for sound waves.
