An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
liquid |
|
plasma |
|
solid |
|
gas |
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
A human heart consists of how many chambers?

1 |
|
2 |
|
8 |
The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.

Which of the following is the formula for power?
\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\) |
|
\(P = {w \over t}\) |
|
\(P = \vec{w}t\) |
|
\(P = w t\) |
Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time: \(P = {w \over t}\) and is measured in watts (W).
Vector quantities are fully described by which of the following?
a direction only |
|
a direction and a polarity |
|
a magnitude and a direction |
|
a magnitude only |
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: \(\vec{v}\)
