Which of the following is the formula for power?
\(P = w t\) |
|
\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\) |
|
\(P = \vec{w}t\) |
|
\(P = {w \over t}\) |
Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
proton |
|
electron |
|
neutron |
|
isotope |
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.

vertebrate |
|
arthropod |
|
spiny |
|

Menstruation occurs when:
the ovum becomes fertilized |
|
the ovum fails to become fertilized |
|
the fetus is formed |
|
the zygote is formed |
If the ovum fails to become fertilized, the lining of the uterus sloughs off during menstruation. From puberty to menopause, this cycle of menstruation repeats monthly (except during pregnancy).
An electrically charged atom is a(n):
ion |
|
neutron |
|
proton |
|
electron |
A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
