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. Which additional information would be MOST helpful in further understanding the issue of microplastics?

• A. The economic costs associated with plastic pollution cleanup.
• B. The specific types of microbes used in bioremediation processes.
• C. The historical timeline of plastic production and its global distribution.
• D. The aesthetic impact of plastic pollution on beaches and tourism.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Understanding the specific microbes used in bioremediation would directly contribute to knowledge about the solution proposed in the passage.

3. What is the role of the appendix, a small pouch attached to the large intestine?

• A. To store waste products
• B. To produce immune cells
• C. To secrete digestive enzymes
• D. To regulate blood sugar levels

Correct answer: B

Rationale: While the exact function of the appendix is still debated, it likely houses lymphoid tissue, contributing to the immune system.

4. When you push a book across a table, the book experiences an equal and opposite force from the table. Why doesn't the table move as well?

• A. The table is much heavier than the book.
• B. The force on the book acts in a different direction.
• C. The table has a much larger surface area, distributing the force over a wider area
• D. All of the above

Correct answer: C

Rationale: While Newton's third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, the unbalanced force acting on each object depends on their respective masses. The larger mass of the table (compared to the book) experiences a smaller acceleration, making its movement almost imperceptible.

5. What happens to the density of a gas when its temperature increases at constant pressure?

• A. It increases.
• B. It decreases.
• C. It remains the same.
• D. Information insufficient

Correct answer: B

Rationale: As gas particles gain thermal energy with increasing temperature, they spread out, decreasing the density.

6. A rectangular bandage measures 5cm by 8cm. What is the area covered by the bandage?

• A. 10cm
• B. 13cm
• C. 40cm^2
• D. 64cm^2

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 40cm^2: Multiply the length (5cm) by the width (8cm).
