1. Which term describes the quantity of matter in an object and is measured in kilograms or grams?

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

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Mass is the term that describes the quantity of matter in an object. It is typically measured in kilograms or grams. Weight, on the other hand, is the force of gravity acting on an object and is measured in newtons. Volume is the amount of space an object occupies, typically measured in cubic units such as cubic meters or cubic centimeters. Density is the mass of an object per unit volume and is measured in units such as kilograms per cubic meter.

2. A car is accelerating down a hill. Which of the following forces is NOT acting on the car?

• A. Gravitational force
• B. Normal force from the road
• C. Air resistance
• D. The car's engine force

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Normal force from the road. The normal force acts perpendicular to the surface of contact and does not contribute to the acceleration down the hill.

3. He emphasizes to the team that they need to put their efforts together towards the attainment

• A. Span of control
• B. Unity of direction
• C. Unity of command
• D. Command responsibility

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Unity of direction. Unity of direction is a principle of management which states that all activities within an organization should be directed towards the same objectives. In this scenario, the leader is stressing the importance of aligning the team's efforts towards a common goal or objective. This ensures that everyone is working towards a shared purpose, avoiding conflicting or contradictory actions. Span of control refers to the number of subordinates a manager can effectively supervise. Unity of command relates to the principle that employees should receive orders from only one supervisor to avoid confusion and conflict. Command responsibility is a term often used in the context of accountability for actions taken under one's command. Therefore, the most appropriate concept in this context is Unity of direction.

4. 7 is divisible by which of the following numbers?

• A. 2 only
• B. 3 only
• C. 1 and 7 only
• D. 2, 3, and 7

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Rationale: 1. 7 is divisible by 1 because every number is divisible by 1. 2. 7 is divisible by 7 because any number is divisible by itself. 3. 7 is not divisible by 2 because 7 is an odd number and not divisible by 2. 4. 7 is not divisible by 3 because the sum of the digits of 7 (7) is not divisible by 3. Therefore, 7 is divisible by 1, 7, and itself (7), making the correct answer D) 2, 3, and 7.

5. Recognize the opposing muscle pair.

• A. Bicep and tricep (Arm flexion and extension)
• B. Hamstring and quadriceps (Knee extension and flexion)
• C. Pectoralis major and pectoralis minor (Chest muscles)
• D. Trapezius and deltoid (Shoulder movement)

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The bicep and tricep muscles are antagonistic muscle pairs, meaning they work in opposition to each other. The bicep is located on the front of the upper arm and is responsible for flexing the elbow joint. The tricep is located on the back of the upper arm and is responsible for extending the elbow joint.

6. How does an increase in surface area affect the force of friction between two surfaces?

• A. Increases friction
• B. Decreases friction
• C. Has no effect on friction
• D. Causes unpredictable changes in friction

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Increasing surface area reduces the force per unit area, decreasing friction.
