Convert 0C° to F°.

72% Answer Correctly

16

0

32

-32


Solution

To convert from C° to F° use:

\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)

\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)

\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)

"The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?

65% Answer Correctly

third

first

fourth

second


Solution

Newton's second law of motion states that The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. This law basically means that the greater the mass of an object, the more force is needed to overcome its inertia.


3

Large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top describe which of the following?

74% Answer Correctly

fog

cumulus clouds

cirrus clouds

stratus clouds


Solution

Cumulus clouds are large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top. These clouds grow upward and can develop into a cumulonimbus or thunderstorm cloud.


4

Which of these is not a component of blood?

82% Answer Correctly

plasma

red blood cells

white blood cells

marrow


Solution

Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.


5

What kind of weather front is likely to create clouds and storms?

59% Answer Correctly

cold front 

stationary front

temperate front

warm front


Solution

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.
