1. A pressure vessel has a cylindrical body (diameter 10cm, height 20cm) with hemispherical ends (same diameter as the cylinder). What is its total surface area?

• A. 785 sq cm
• B. 1130 sq cm
• C. 1570 sq cm
• D. 2055 sq cm

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Calculate the surface area of the cylinder (base + lateral surface) and two hemispheres. Add them all up for the total surface area.

2. Which of the following is NOT a common site for lymph nodes?

• A. Groin
• B. Armpit
• C. Neck
• D. Liver

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: 'Liver.' Lymph nodes are small, bean-shaped structures that are part of the lymphatic system. They are commonly found in areas such as the groin, armpit, and neck, where they help filter and trap harmful substances. The liver, while an important organ in the body, does not typically contain lymph nodes. Therefore, it is not a common site for lymph nodes. Understanding the locations of lymph nodes in the body is important for identifying potential sources of infection or cancer when assessing patients.

3. What does the term "dilution" refer to in a solution?

• A. Adding more solvent to decrease concentration
• B. Adding more solute to increase concentration
• C. Reducing the temperature to increase solubility
• D. Increasing pressure to increase solubility

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Dilution involves adding more solvent to a solution to decrease the concentration of solute. The other choices do not accurately describe dilution

4. Which hormone is responsible for stimulating the development of sex organs and secondary sex characteristics during puberty?

• A. Growth hormone
• B. Testosterone (in males) and Estrogen (in females
• C. Insulin
• D. Thyroid hormone

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Testosterone (in males) and Estrogen (in females). During puberty, the release of these sex hormones plays a crucial role in the development of sex organs and secondary sex characteristics. Testosterone is responsible for male characteristics like facial hair, deepening of the voice, and muscle growth, while Estrogen contributes to female features such as breast development and the widening of hips. Growth hormone primarily regulates overall growth and development, while Insulin is involved in glucose metabolism and Thyroid hormone controls metabolism and energy levels. Therefore, the correct choice is B as Testosterone and Estrogen are specifically responsible for the changes seen during puberty.

5. The author likely intended to use the phrase "interconnected sensors" to emphasize...

• A. The cost-effectiveness of smart city technology.
• B. The complexity and network-based nature of the system.
• C. The potential for environmental harm of sensor installation.
• D. The aesthetic appeal of modern urban infrastructure.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: "Interconnected" highlights the integration and communication between sensors, indicating a complex network approach.

6. How is power related to work and time?

• A. Power = Work ÷ Time
• B. Power = Work × Time
• C. Power = Work + Time
• D. Power = Work - Time

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Power is calculated as the amount of work done or energy transferred per unit of time.
