1. Define "acceleration" in terms of motion.

• A. Change in velocity over time
• B. Speed in a straight line
• C. Distance covered in a given time
• D. Force applied to an object

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

2. What does the term "colligative property" refer to in solutions?

• A. Properties that depend on the nature of the solute particles
• B. Properties that depend on the concentration of solute particles
• C. Properties that depend on the temperature of the solution
• D. Properties that depend on the pressure of the solution

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Colligative properties are dependent on the number of solute particles in a solution, not their nature. The other choices do not accurately define colligative properties.

3. What is the relationship between work and the displacement of an object?

• A. Work depends only on the force applied, not displacement
• B. Work is directly proportional to displacement
• C. Work is inversely proportional to displacement
• D. Work is unrelated to displacement

Correct answer:

Rationale: Work done is directly proportional to the displacement of an object in the direction of the force applied.

4. The author expresses concern about the...

• A. high cost and limited efficiency of traditional fossil fuel power plants.
• B. unpredictable weather patterns and their impact on renewable energy production.
• C. increasing dependence on technology and potential cybersecurity risks.
• D. negative environmental consequences of renewable energy infrastructure.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The passage's focus on managing the intermittency of renewable energy due to weather conditions implies concern about B.

5. Electroencephalography (EEG) measures electrical activity in the brain, primarily reflecting the activity of:

• A. Neurons
• B. Astrocytes
• C. Oligodendrocytes
• D. Microglia

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Neurons. Electroencephalography (EEG) measures the electrical activity in the brain, which is primarily generated by the neurons. Neurons are the main cells responsible for transmitting electrical signals in the brain, making them the key source of the brain's electrical activity. Astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglia are important supporting cells in the brain but do not generate the electrical impulses that EEG measures. Therefore, the correct choice is A: Neurons.

6. What do isotopes of the same element have in common?

• A. Identical number of protons and neutrons.
• B. Identical chemical properties.
• C. Identical number of electrons.
• D. Identical mass number.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Identical number of protons and neutrons - Isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to varying neutron counts.
