1. Define power in physics.

• A. The rate of change of energy
• B. The rate of doing work or transferring energy
• C. The measure of an object's potential energy
• D. The force exerted on an object

Correct answer: b

Rationale: Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred or converted.

2. What is the name for the tiny particles that make up atoms?

• A. Protons
• B. Electrons
• C. Neutrons

3. The primary function of the respiratory system is to:

• A. Maintain body temperature
• B. Deliver oxygen to the bloodstream and remove carbon dioxide
• C. Produce antibodies for the immune system
• D. Break down food molecules for energy

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Deliver oxygen to the bloodstream and remove carbon dioxide.' The primary function of the respiratory system is to facilitate gas exchange. When we breathe in, oxygen is inhaled and transported to the bloodstream, where it is delivered to cells for energy production. Simultaneously, carbon dioxide, a waste product of cellular metabolism, is removed from the bloodstream and exhaled. This process is vital for sustaining life and maintaining proper oxygen levels in the body. The respiratory system does not primarily regulate body temperature, produce antibodies, or break down food molecules for energy, making options A, C, and D incorrect.

4. Identify the relative clause in the sentence "The book that won the award was a bestseller."

• A. "The book"
• B. "that won the award"
• C. "was a bestseller"

6. How many moles of water are produced when 0.5 moles of methane (CH4) react with excess oxygen?

• A. 0.5 moles
• B. 1 mole
• C. 2 moles
• D. 3 moles

Correct answer: c

Rationale: The balanced equation is CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O, indicating a 1:2 ratio between CH4 and H2O.
