1. What is the momentum of a car with a mass of 1500 kg moving at a speed of 20 m/s?

• A. 30,000 kg m/s
• B. 1500 kg m/s
• C. 20 kg m/s
• D. Momentum cannot be determined without knowing the direction of motion.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity. Momentum = mass x velocity = 1500 kg x 20 m/s = 30,000 kg m/s.

2. Which of the following situations represents work being done on an object?

• A. Pushing against a wall without moving it
• B. Carrying a heavy object without lifting it
• C. Lifting a box to place it on a shelf
• D. Holding a book stationary in your hand

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Work is done when a force is applied to move an object over a distance.

3. What is the formula to calculate gravitational potential energy near the Earth's surface?

• A. Potential Energy=Mass×Acceleration
• B. Potential Energy=Force×Distance
• C. Potential Energy=Mass×Height×Gravity
• D. Potential Energy=Mass×Acceleration due to gravity×Height

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Gravitational potential energy near the Earth's surface is given by the formula PE = � × � × ℎ PE=m×g×h, where � m is mass, � g is acceleration due to gravity, and ℎ h is heigh

4. Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped structures found along lymphatic vessels. What is their primary function?

• A. To store excess lymph fluid
• B. To produce red blood cells
• C. To filter lymph and fight infection
• D. To transport lymph to the heart

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. Lymph nodes are crucial components of the immune system. Their primary function is to filter lymph, which is a clear fluid containing white blood cells, and to fight off infections. Lymph nodes contain specialized cells that help trap and destroy pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, that may be present in the lymph fluid. This process helps to prevent the spread of infections throughout the body and plays a key role in maintaining overall immune function. Therefore, option C, 'To filter lymph and fight infection,' is the most appropriate description of the primary function of lymph nodes.

5. Which property of a wave remains constant when it crosses a boundary between two different media?

• A. Frequency
• B. Wavelength
• C. Amplitude
• D. Speed

Correct answer: d

Rationale: The speed of a wave remains constant when it crosses a boundary between two different media, although its direction may change.

6. What property of a wave is measured in Hertz (Hz)?

• A. Amplitude
• B. Wavelength
• C. Speed
• D. Frequency

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Frequency, the number of oscillations per second, is measured in Hertz (Hz).
