1. Which property of a wave represents the distance between two successive identical points on a wave?

• A. Wavelength
• B. Amplitude
• C. Frequency
• D. Period

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Wavelength is the distance between two identical points (like crests or troughs) on a wave.

2. A medication order is written as 3/4 of a tablet. If each tablet is 500mg, what is the equivalent dosage in milligrams?

• A. 375mg
• B. 425mg
• C. 450mg
• D. 475mg

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Multiply the tablet strength (500mg) by the fractional dose (3/4) to get 375 milligrams.

3. A medication dosage is listed as 1/2 teaspoon. What is the equivalent dosage in milliliters (1 teaspoon = 5ml)?

• A. 1.25ml
• B. 2.5ml
• C. 3.75ml
• D. 5ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: 2.5ml: Divide the teaspoon dosage (1/2) by the conversion factor (2 teaspoons/5ml).

4. Nuclear fusion powers the sun and other stars. What is the main obstacle to achieving controlled nuclear fusion on Earth for energy production?

• A. Lack of suitable materials to handle high temperatures and pressures.
• B. Limited availability of fusion fuels like deuterium and tritium.
• C. Difficulty in containing the plasma where fusion occurs.
• D. All of the above.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The main obstacle to achieving controlled nuclear fusion on Earth for energy production involves a combination of factors. A) Lack of suitable materials to handle high temperatures and pressures is a significant challenge due to the extreme conditions required for fusion reactions. B) Limited availability of fusion fuels like deuterium and tritium can pose a constraint on the scalability and sustainability of fusion energy. C) Difficulty in containing the plasma where fusion occurs is another critical issue as plasma instabilities and heat losses can hinder the efficiency of fusion reactions. Therefore, all of the options (A, B, and C) contribute to the challenges in achieving controlled nuclear fusion for energy production on Earth.

5. What is the term for the process of separating the components of a solution based on their different rates of movement through a medium?

• A. Filtration
• B. Distillation
• C. Chromatography
• D. Precipitation

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Chromatography is a technique used to separate the components of a solution based on their different rates of movement through a medium. The other choices are different separation techniques.

6. The final sentence suggests that users should approach social media with a healthy dose of

• A. Enthusiasm and optimism about its potential for connection and engagement.
• B. Skepticism and critical thinking towards the information encountered online.
• C. Acceptance of its flaws and a passive reliance on its features for interaction.
• D. Indifference towards its impacts and an absence of any effort to manage its use.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The emphasis on "critical thinking" and "skepticism" suggests the importance of approaching social media with a cautious and discerning mind, aligning with B
