1. How is power related to time?

• A. Power is inversely proportional to time
• B. Power is directly proportional to time
• C. Power is unrelated to time
• D. Power is the product of time and work

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred, and it is not directly linked to time.

2. What is the unit of measurement for power?

• A. Joule (J)
• B. Newton (N)
• C. Watt (W)
• D. Kilogram-meter (kg·m)

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Power is measured in watts (W) in the SI unit system.

3. The author's attitude towards history seems to be

• A. indifferent and neutral, presenting it as an objective field of study.
• B. critical and dismissive, questioning its practical applicability in the present.
• C. enthusiastic and optimistic, highlighting its potential to guide the future.
• D. pessimistic and cautious, emphasizing the risk of repeating past mistakes.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage's overall tone highlights the value and utility of history, showcasing its potential to inspire and guide us, suggesting an optimistic and encouraging view.

4. The gradual loss of topsoil due to wind or water erosion is called:

• A. Desertification
• B. Leaching
• C. Salinization
• D. Acidification

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: A) Desertification refers to the process by which fertile land becomes desert, typically as a result of drought, deforestation, or inappropriate agriculture practices. The gradual loss of topsoil due to wind or water erosion can lead to the degradation of land and contribute to desertification. B) Leaching is the process by which minerals are washed out of the soil by water moving downwards through it. C) Salinization occurs when salt accumulates in the soil, usually as a result of irrigation in arid regions. D) Acidification refers to the decrease in soil pH, often caused by acid rain or the use of acidic fertilizers.

5. What is the Doppler effect, and how does it explain the shift in frequency of sound waves perceived by an observer?

• A. It only affects light waves, not sound waves.
• B. It's the change in wave speed due to medium density.
• C. It's the perceived change in frequency due to relative motion.
• D. It's the bending of waves due to different mediums.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The Doppler effect describes how the perceived frequency of a wave changes depending on the relative motion between the source and observer. For example, an approaching siren sounds higher pitched due to compressed wavefronts, while a receding siren sounds lower due to stretched wavefronts.

6. Which of the following is the smallest unit of matter?

• A. Molecule
• B. Atom
• C. Compound
• D. Element

Correct answer: B

Rationale: An atom is the fundamental building block of matter, while molecules are formed by the combination of atoms.
