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. Repeating decimals can be expressed as fractions. Which of the following represents the decimal 0.7777... as a fraction?

• A. 77/1000
• B. 70/99
• C. 777/900
• D. 7/9

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Let x equal the decimal. Set up two equations such that the digits after the decimal point are identical. 1000x = 777.7777... 10x = 7.7777... Subtracting the two equations, we have 990x = 770. Dividing both sides by 990 gives us x = 770/990, which can be simplified to 77/90.

3. A blog post criticizes a scientific study due to the author's political views. Is this a valid critique?

• A. Yes, if the author identifies specific flaws in the methodology.
• B. Yes, if the author disagrees with the study's conclusions.
• C. o, scientific evaluation should be based on evidence, not personal beliefs.
• D. No, unless the author has scientific expertise themselves.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Criticism in science should focus on methodology, data analysis, and evidence, not personal agendas or political opinions.

4. She finds out that some managers have benevolent-authoritative style of management. Which

• A. Have condescending trust and confidence in their subordinates
• B. Gives economic or ego awards
• C. Communicates downward to the staff
• D. Allows decision making among subordinates

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the benevolent-authoritative style of management involves allowing decision-making among subordinates. This style combines a caring attitude towards employees with a level of authority and control. Managers who adopt this style often empower their subordinates to make decisions within a set framework, fostering a sense of autonomy and responsibility among the team. Options A, B, and C do not accurately describe the characteristics of a benevolent-authoritative management style, making them incorrect choices for this question.

5. Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue found in the:

• A. Center of long bones
• B. Joints between bones
• C. Muscle tissue
• D. Walls of blood vessels

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue that is found in the joints between bones. It is a strong yet flexible tissue that cushions and supports the joints, allowing for smooth movement and reducing friction between bones. Cartilage is not typically found in the center of long bones, muscle tissue, or walls of blood vessels. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 'Joints between bones.'

6. What type of force opposes the motion of an object moving through a fluid (liquid or gas)?

• A. Gravitational force
• B. Tension force
• C. Viscous force
• D. Magnetic force

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Viscous force is the resistance experienced by an object moving through a fluid due to internal friction.
