1. An element with atomic number 26 and mass number 56 is most likely to be:

• A. Iron (Fe)
• B. Cobalt (Co)
• C. Nickel (Ni)
• D. Manganese (Mn)

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Iron (Fe) - Fe-56 has 26 protons and aligns with the given atomic number and mass number.

2. A study finds a link between increased screen time and lower academic performance. What additional information would be most helpful in interpreting this finding?

• A. The average socioeconomic status of the study participants.
• B. The specific types of screen activities participants engaged in.

• D. The participants' ages and grade levels.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Knowing the specific types of screen activities participants engaged in would provide crucial context for interpreting the link between increased screen time and lower academic performance. For example, if the majority of screen time was spent on educational apps or programs, the impact on academic performance may differ compared to if the screen time was mostly spent on social media or gaming. Understanding the nature of screen activities can help determine the potential mechanisms behind the observed relationship.

3. How is power defined in terms of physics?
