1. 12 is a/an:

• A. even number
• B. odd number
• C. prime number
• D. composite number

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Even numbers are integers divisible by 2 without a remainder. Since 12 divided by 2 equals 6 with no remainder, 12 is even.

2. 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).

3. What happens to the wavelength of a wave when its frequency increases while the speed remains constant?

• A. Wavelength increases
• B. Wavelength decreases
• C. Wavelength remains the same
• D. Wavelength becomes zero

Correct answer: b

Rationale: When the frequency of a wave increases while the speed remains constant, the wavelength decreases.

4. What is the main component of sweat?

• A. Urea
• B. Glucose
• C. Water
• D. Electrolytes

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: - Sweat is primarily composed of water, making up the majority of its content. Water helps regulate body temperature by evaporating from the skin's surface, which cools the body down. - While sweat does contain small amounts of other substances like urea, glucose, and electrolytes, water is the main component that is secreted by sweat glands to help regulate body temperature during physical activity or in response to heat.

5. A pizza has a diameter of 40cm. What is its perimeter (circumference)?

• A. 62.8cm
• B. 125.5cm
• C. 125.6cm
• D. 251.2cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Multiply the diameter by π: perimeter = π * diameter = π * 40cm ≈ 125.6cm (Note: π ≈ 3.14)

6. A car is traveling on a curved road. What force keeps the car moving along the curved path?

• A. Gravitational force
• B. Normal force from the road
• C. Air resistance
• D. Friction between the tires and the road

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In this case, static friction acts between the tires and the road, providing the centripetal force required to keep the car moving in a circle even though it's traveling in a straight line relative to the ground.
