What is the body's largest artery?
aorta |
|
vena cava |
|
capillary |
|
arteriole |
The aorta is the body's largest artery and receives blood from the pulmonary vein via the left ventricle. From there, blood is circulated through the rest of the body through smaller arteries called arterioles that branch out from the heart. Finally, blood is delivered to bodily tissues through capillaries.
The formula \(\vec{F_{g}} = { Gm_{1}m_{2} \over r^2}\) applies to which of Newton's laws?
first law of motion |
|
third law of motion |
|
universal gravitation |
|
second law of motion |
Newton's law of universal gravitation defines gravity: All objects in the universe attract each other with an equal force that varies directly as a product of their masses, and inversely as a square of their distance from each other. Expressed as a formula: \(\vec{F_{g}} = { Gm_{1}m_{2} \over r^2}\) where r is the distance between the two objects and G is the gravitational constant with a value of 6.67 x 10-11.
Which of these is not a phase in cell division?
anaphase |
|
interphase |
|
cytokinesis |
|
megaphase |
Cell division is the process by which cells replicate genetic material in the nucleus and consists of several phases, beginning with interphase and ending with cytokinesis.
Which of the following states of matter exists at the highest temperature?
liquid |
|
solid |
|
gas |
|
none of these |
Solids exist at a lower temperature than liquids which exist at a lower temperature than gases.
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 \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)
