1. What is the principle behind optical fibers used in communication?

• A. Reflection of light within the fiber
• B. Refraction of light due to different densities within the fiber
• C. Total internal reflection guiding light through the fiber core
• D. Diffraction of light around bends in the fiber

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Optical fibers used in communication rely on the principle of total internal reflection guiding light through the fiber core. When light enters the fiber at a certain angle, it reflects off the boundary between the core and cladding, ensuring that the light remains trapped within the core and travels along the fiber without significant loss of signal. This total internal reflection allows for efficient transmission of light signals over long distances in optical communication systems.

2. What property of matter refers to the amount of space occupied by an object?

• A. Mass
• B. Volume
• C. Weight
• D. Density

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Volume measures the amount of space occupied by an object.

3. Which term describes a substance's ability to undergo a change that transforms it into a different substance?

• A. Density
• B. Mass
• C. Reactivity
• D. Volume

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Reactivity refers to a substance's ability to undergo a chemical change or reaction, transforming it into one or more different substances with new properties.

4. Julius orients his staff on the patterns of reporting relationship throughout the organization.

• A. Span of control
• B. Hierarchy
• C. Esprit d’ corps
• D. Unity of direction

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Hierarchy. Hierarchy refers to the structure of authority and responsibility within an organization, including the levels of management and the reporting relationships. In this scenario, Julius is orienting his staff on the patterns of reporting relationships, which is a key aspect of hierarchy. Span of control refers to the number of employees a manager can effectively supervise, esprit de corps pertains to team spirit and unity among employees, and unity of direction relates to ensuring all activities are focused on the same objectives. Therefore, the most appropriate term for Julius's action is hierarchy.

5. What is the formula to calculate acceleration?

• A. Acceleration= Mass Force ​
• B. Acceleration= Force Mass ​
• C. Acceleration= Time Distance ​
• D. Acceleration= Time Change in Velocity ​

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Acceleration is calculated as the change in velocity divided by the time taken.

6. A table top has dimensions of 75cm by 50cm. What is its perimeter if opposite sides are equal?

• A. 125cm
• B. 150cm
• C. 200cm
• D. 50cm

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - Given that the table top has dimensions of 75cm by 50cm. - Since opposite sides are equal, the table top can be divided into two pairs of equal sides: 75cm and 50cm. - To find the perimeter, we add up all four sides: 75cm + 50cm + 75cm + 50cm = 250cm. - However, since opposite sides are equal, we only need to consider two sides: 75cm + 50cm = 125cm. - Therefore, the perimeter of the table top is 125cm + 125cm = 150cm. - Hence, the correct answer is B) 150cm.
