1. What is the formula to calculate gravitational potential energy near the Earth's surface?

• A. Potential Energy=Mass×Acceleration
• B. Potential Energy=Force×Distance
• C. Potential Energy=Mass×Height×Gravity
• D. Potential Energy=Mass×Acceleration due to gravity×Height

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Gravitational potential energy near the Earth's surface is given by the formula PE = � × � × ℎ PE=m×g×h, where � m is mass, � g is acceleration due to gravity, and ℎ h is heigh

2. A concave mirror can be used to:

• A. Focus light to a single point
• B. Only create virtual images
• C. Always magnify objects
• D. Scatter light

Correct answer: A

Rationale: A concave mirror can be used to focus light to a single point because of its reflective surface that curves inward. When light rays parallel to the mirror's principal axis strike the mirror, they converge at a focal point, creating a real image. This property makes concave mirrors useful in applications like reflecting telescopes and headlights, where focusing light to a point is necessary for proper functioning. Virtual images are also created by concave mirrors, but the primary function is to focus light rather than create virtual images. Magnification of objects and scattering of light are not inherent properties of concave mirrors.

3. What part of speech is the underlined word in the sentence: "He felt a growing sense of unease"?

• A. Verb
• B. Noun
• C. Adjective
• D. Adverb

Correct answer: B

Rationale: "Sense" represents a concept or feeling, making it a noun here.

4. What type of clause is "as the sun dipped below the horizon" in the sentence "We sat on the beach, as the sun dipped below the horizon"?

• A. Independent clause
• B. Subordinate clause
• C. Appositive clause
• D. Noun clause

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The clause "as the sun dipped below the horizon" provides additional information about the main clause "We sat on the beach," making it a subordinate clause.

5. Which hormone is responsible for stimulating the development of sex organs and secondary sex characteristics during puberty?

• A. Growth hormone
• B. Testosterone (in males) and Estrogen (in females
• C. Insulin
• D. Thyroid hormone

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Testosterone (in males) and Estrogen (in females). During puberty, the release of these sex hormones plays a crucial role in the development of sex organs and secondary sex characteristics. Testosterone is responsible for male characteristics like facial hair, deepening of the voice, and muscle growth, while Estrogen contributes to female features such as breast development and the widening of hips. Growth hormone primarily regulates overall growth and development, while Insulin is involved in glucose metabolism and Thyroid hormone controls metabolism and energy levels. Therefore, the correct choice is B as Testosterone and Estrogen are specifically responsible for the changes seen during puberty.

6. If 3 nurses can care for 15 patients, how many nurses are needed for 25 patients?

• A. 4
• B. 5
• C. 6
• D. 7

Correct answer: B

Rationale: 3 nurses / 15 patients = x nurses / 25 patients. Solve for x.
