Nursing Elites

1. Define work in physics.

• A. Force applied to an object at rest
• B. Force exerted by an object in motion
• C. Transfer of energy through motion along a direction
• D. Measure of an object's potential energy

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Work in physics is the transfer of energy when a force is applied and the object moves in the direction of the force.

2. Positive integers are greater than zero. Which of the following expressions results in the largest positive number?

• A. (2 + 3)^2
• B. 5 x 7 + 2
• C. 10^2 - 4^2
• D. (8 - 1) x 3

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 10^2 - 4^2 = 100 - 16 = 84

3. Which of the following is TRUE about functional nursing?

• A. Concentrates on tasks and activities
• B. Emphasizes use of group collaboration
• C. One-to-one nurse-patient ratio
• D. Provides continuous, coordinated and comprehensive nursing services

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: "Emphasizes use of group collaboration." Functional nursing is a task-oriented approach where team members specialize in specific tasks or activities. In this model, nurses work together in groups to provide care to a larger number of patients efficiently. This differs from the one-to-one nurse-patient ratio (C) and the continuous, coordinated, and comprehensive nursing services (D). While functional nursing concentrates on tasks (A), the key feature emphasized in this care delivery model is the use of group collaboration to provide care effectively.

4. 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.'

5. Which orbital can hold a maximum of 8 electrons?

• A. s orbital
• B. p orbital
• C. d orbital
• D. f orbital

Correct answer: C

Rationale: d orbital - Each d orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, and there are 5 d orbitals, totaling 10 possible electrons.

6. Identify the clause that acts as an adverbial modifier in the sentence: "While the movie was playing, I snuck out to get popcorn."

• A. While the movie was playing
• B. I snuck out
• C. to get popcorn
• D. the movie was playing
