Convert 0C° to F°.
-32 |
|
0 |
|
32 |
|
16 |
To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)
\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity?
none of these |
|
\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \) |
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. Rate is measured in time and position is measured in displacement so the formula for velocity becomes \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)
The large intestine does which of the following?
breaks down fats |
|
processes the physical waste produced by digestion |
|
breaks down proteins |
|
breaks down starches |
The large intestine (colon) follows the small intestine and processes the physical waste produced by digestion, absorbing water and minerials that remain back into the body. Solid waste is then stored in the rectum while liquid waste is stored in the bladder.
Which of the following is not a vector quantity?
acceleration |
|
velocity |
|
mass |
|
momentum |
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: \(\vec{v}\)
In the food chain, bacteria and fungi convert the organic matter in the dead bodies of plants and animals into simple nutrients. Bacteria and fungi are:
producers |
|
scavengers |
|
primary consumers |
|
decomposers |
Decomposers (saprotrophs) are organisms such as bacteria and fungi that break down the organic matter in the dead bodies of plants and animals into simple nutrients.
