1. What is the SI unit of measurement for momentum?

• A. Newton (N)
• B. Kilogram-meter per second (kg·m/s)
• C. Joule (J)
• D. Newton-second (N·s)

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Momentum is measured in kilogram-meter per second (kg·m/s).

2. A honeycomb cell has six equal sides, each measuring 8mm. What is its perimeter?

• A. 32mm
• B. 40mm
• C. 48mm
• D. 56mm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Multiply the side length by the number of sides: perimeter = number of sides * side length = 6 * 8mm = 48mm.

3. The lymphatic system works closely with which other body system to fight infections?

• A. Respiratory system
• B. Digestive system
• C. Immune system
• D. Nervous system

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is the Respiratory system. The lymphatic system and the respiratory system work closely together to fight infections. The respiratory system helps to filter out pathogens and other harmful substances from the air we breathe, while the lymphatic system produces and transports white blood cells (lymphocytes) that play a key role in the immune response against infections. This collaboration helps the body to defend against respiratory infections and maintain overall health.

4. A solution is 60% alcohol. If 200ml of the solution are used, how much pure alcohol is present?

• A. 100ml
• B. 120ml
• C. 140ml
• D. 160ml

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Multiply the total solution volume (200ml) by the alcohol percentage (60%)

5. Identify the verb in the following sentence: The dog chased the fluffy squirrel around the oak tree.

• A. around
• B. chased
• C. squirrel
• D. the

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Verbs express actions or states of being. In this sentence, "chased" describes what the dog did.

6. The critical angle is defined as the minimum angle of incidence in a denser medium for which light undergoes:

• A. Total internal reflection
• B. Continued refraction
• C. Specular reflection
• D. Increased dispersion

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The critical angle is the minimum angle of incidence at which light is totally internally reflected rather than refracted. When light travels from a denser medium to a rarer medium at an angle greater than the critical angle, it undergoes total internal reflection. This phenomenon is crucial in applications like fiber optics and mirages. Continued refraction (option B) occurs when light enters a medium at an angle less than the critical angle. Specular reflection (option C) refers to the reflection of light at a smooth surface. Increased dispersion (option D) involves the separation of light into its constituent colors due to varying refractive indices, which is not directly related to the critical angle. Therefore, the correct answer is A - total internal reflection.
