1. Which additional information would be MOST relevant to the topic of the passage?

• A. A detailed history of the development of specific social media platforms.
• B. Studies on the psychological effects of prolonged social media use on teenagers.
• C. Statistics on the global economic impact of the social media industry.
• D. Technical explanations of the algorithms used by social media platforms.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Studies on the psychological effects of social media use directly relate to the passage's concerns about mental health impacts, making it the most relevant information.

2. A ball is thrown upwards. Which of the following statements is TRUE about its potential energy and kinetic energy at the peak of its trajectory?

• A. Both potential and kinetic energy are zero.
• B. Potential energy is maximum and kinetic energy is minimum.
• C. Potential energy is minimum and kinetic energy is maximum.
• D. Both potential and kinetic energy remain constant.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: At the peak, the ball momentarily stops moving, minimizing kinetic energy. However, it's still at its highest point, maximizing its potential energy due to gravity.

3. When ice melts, it undergoes a…

• A. Chemical change
• B. Physical change
• C. Nuclear change
• D. Radioactive decay

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Melting is a change in physical state, not a change in the chemical composition of the ice.

4. The gradual change in a species over time is called:

• A. Adaptation
• B. Evolution
• C. Speciation
• D. Natural selection

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - Adaptation refers to the process by which a species becomes better suited to its environment over time. While adaptation is a component of evolution, it specifically refers to the changes that help a species survive and reproduce in its environment. - Speciation is the process by which new species arise from a single ancestral species. It involves the evolution of reproductive isolation between populations. - Natural selection is a mechanism of evolution where individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, leading to the increase in frequency of those traits in a population. - Evolution is the gradual change in a species over time, encompassing all the processes such as adaptation, speciation, and natural selection that drive these changes.

5. A medication dosage is listed as 1/4 gram. What is the equivalent dosage in milligrams (1 gram = 1000 milligrams)?

• A. 125mg
• B. 250mg
• C. 375mg
• D. 500mg

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Multiply the gram dosage (1/4) by the conversion factor (1000mg/gram) to get 250 milligrams.

6. What is the half-life of a radioactive isotope, and how does it relate to its decay rate?

• A. The time it takes for half of the initial sample to decay.
• B. The time it takes for all the sample to decay.
• C. The rate at which new isotopes are created.
• D. The energy released during decay.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Half-life tells the time it takes for half of the original radioactive nuclei to decay, offering an indication of the decay rate.
