1. How does the mass of an object affect its inertia?

• A. Mass has no impact on inertia
• B. Higher mass increases inertia
• C. Higher mass decreases inertia
• D. Mass influences gravitational force, not inertia

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion. The greater the mass of an object, the greater its inertia because it requires more force to change its state of motion. This is in line with Newton's first law of motion, which states that an object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force.

2. A water fountain has a spherical base (diameter 50cm) and a cylindrical body (diameter 30cm, height 80cm) on top. What is the total surface area of the fountain (excluding the water surface)?

• A. 3142 sq cm
• B. 4712 sq cm
• C. 5486 sq cm
• D. 7957 sq cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Calculate the surface area of the sphere and the cylinder separately, then add them up.

3. Which of the following structures plays a crucial role in controlling the cell cycle and preventing uncontrolled cell growth?

• A. The centrioles
• B. The nucleolus
• C. The Golgi apparatus
• D. The endoplasmic reticulum

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: - Centrioles are cylindrical structures found in animal cells that play a crucial role in organizing the spindle fibers during cell division (mitosis). They are involved in the separation of chromosomes during cell division, ensuring that each daughter cell receives the correct number of chromosomes. - Centrioles are also involved in the formation of cilia and flagella, which are important for cell motility and sensory functions. - The other structures listed in the options (nucleolus, Golgi apparatus, and endoplasmic reticulum) do not directly play a role in controlling the cell cycle and preventing uncontrolled cell growth.

4. How is power related to energy?

• A. Power is the same as energy
• B. Energy is the rate at which work is done
• C. Power is the amount of stored energy
• D. Energy is the rate at which power is transferred

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Energy is related to the amount of work done or the capacity to do work, while power measures the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.

5. Which of the following is a unit of work and energy?

• A. Pascal (Pa)
• B. Kilowatt-hour (kWh)
• C. Coulomb (C)
• D. Tesla (T)

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Kilowatt-hour is a unit used to measure both work and energy, especially in the context of electricity consumption.

6. What happens to the momentum of an object when there is no external force acting upon it?

• A. Momentum increases
• B. Momentum decreases
• C. Momentum remains constant
• D. Momentum becomes zero

Correct answer: c

Rationale: In the absence of external forces, momentum remains constant due to the conservation of momentum.
