1. What effect does doubling the net force applied to an object have on its acceleration, assuming mass remains constant?

• A. Acceleration doubles
• B. Acceleration is halved
• C. Acceleration remains the same
• D. Acceleration quadruples

Correct answer: a

Rationale: According to Newton's second law (F = ma), if mass remains constant and force doubles, acceleration also doubles.

2. Which verb tense is most appropriate for this sentence: "By next week, _____ finished the project."

• A. I will be finishing
• B. I will have finished
• C. I am finishing
• D. I would finish

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Option B expresses a future event completed before another future point in time (next week).

3. What phenomenon occurs when light passes through a medium but does not change direction, such as when passing through a window?

• A. Diffraction
• B. Reflection
• C. Dispersion
• D. Transmission

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Transmission occurs when light passes through a medium without changing direction, as observed when light passes through a window.

4. What is the outermost layer of the dermis, rich in collagen and elastin fibers that provide elasticity to the skin?

• A. Papillary layer
• B. Reticular layer
• C. Stratum basale
• D. Stratum corneum

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Papillary layer. The papillary layer is the outermost layer of the dermis and is rich in collagen and elastin fibers. These fibers provide elasticity to the skin, helping it maintain its structure and flexibility. The reticular layer, although deeper in the dermis, is not the outermost layer and is primarily responsible for providing strength and support to the skin. The stratum basale and stratum corneum are layers of the epidermis, not the dermis. The stratum basale is the deepest layer of the epidermis where new skin cells are formed, while the stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the epidermis composed of dead skin cells. Understanding the different layers of the skin is essential for comprehending its functions and properties.

5. Two objects with different masses collide. What happens to their momentum after the collision?

• A. Increases for both objects
• B. Decreases for both objects
• C. Remains the same for both objects
• D. Can increase for one and decrease for the other

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In an isolated system (no external forces), the total momentum

6. Which of the following best describes a balanced force acting on an object?

• A. The object remains at rest
• B. The object moves with constant velocity
• C. The object accelerates
• D. The object's mass changes

Correct answer: b

Rationale: When balanced forces act on an object, the object remains in a state of constant velocity (including at rest).
