1. Which property of matter explains why ice floats on water?

• A. Viscosity
• B. Density
• C. Buoyancy
• D. Surface tension

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by a fluid (like water) on an object immersed in it. Ice floats on water because it is less dense than water, experiencing an upward force (buoyancy) greater than its weight.

2. The process by which one element changes into another through radioactive decay is known as:

• A. Transmutation
• B. Fission
• C. Fusion
• D. Oxidation

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Transmutation - Radioactive decay alters the atomic structure, changing the element's identity (transmutation).

3. Which organelle is responsible for packaging and secreting proteins into the extracellular space?

• A. Golgi apparatus
• B. Mitochondria
• C. Ribosomes
• D. Endoplasmic reticulum

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: A) Golgi apparatus: The Golgi apparatus is responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins into vesicles for secretion outside the cell or for use within the cell. B) Mitochondria: Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell and are responsible for generating energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. They are not involved in packaging and secreting proteins. C) Ribosomes: Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis, where they translate mRNA into proteins. They are not involved in packaging and secreting proteins into the extracellular space. D) Endoplasmic reticulum: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a role in protein synthesis and folding, but it is the rough ER specifically that is involved in synthesizing proteins that are then transported to the Golgi apparatus for further processing and packaging. The Golgi apparatus is primarily responsible for packaging and secreting proteins

4. The final sentence suggests that public discourse about AI should focus on

• A. Celebrating the achievements of AI and promoting its widespread adoption in all sectors.
• B. Criticizing the ethical shortcomings of existing AI systems and demanding stricter regulations.
• C. Engaging in open and informed discussions about the potential benefits, risks, and responsible development of AI.
• D. Focusing solely on the technical challenges of AI development and leaving ethical considerations to experts.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The emphasis on "ongoing public discourse" and "the future of AI in society" suggests a call for open discussions and collective responsibility, aligning with C.

5. A spring with a spring constant of 100 N/m is stretched 0.2 m from its equilibrium position. What is the potential energy stored in the spring?

• A. 2 J
• B. 4 J
• C. 8 J
• D. 20 J

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Potential energy in a spring is calculated as 1/2 * k * x², where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement from equilibrium. Therefore, the potential energy is 1/2 * 100 N/m * (0.2 m)² = 4 J.

6. She knows that there are external forces that influence changes in his unit. Which of the

• A. Memo from the CEO to cut down on electrical consumption
• B. Demands of the labor sector to increase wages
• C. Low morale of staff in her unit
• D. Exacting regulatory and accreditation standards

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is option A: 'Memo from the CEO to cut down on electrical consumption.' This choice represents an external force that can influence changes in the unit by setting a directive from top management to reduce electricity usage, impacting operations and decisions within the unit. While options B, C, and D may also affect the unit to some extent, they are not as directly tied to external influences as the CEO's memo. The demands of the labor sector (option B) and low staff morale (option C) are internal factors, while regulatory and accreditation standards (option D) are more overarching guidelines rather than specific external forces impacting the unit. Therefore, the most direct and relevant external force in this scenario is the directive from the CEO, making option A the correct choice.
