1. Bernoulli's principle for an incompressible, inviscid fluid in steady flow states that the mechanical energy, consisting of:

• A. Pressure (P) only, remains constant along a streamline.
• B. Velocity (v) only, remains constant along a streamline.
• C. P + ½ρv² (total mechanical energy), remains constant along a streamline
• D. Density (ρ) only, remains constant along a streamline.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Bernoulli's principle states that the sum of pressure energy (P), kinetic energy per unit volume (½ρv²), and potential energy per unit volume remains constant along a streamline in an incompressible, inviscid fluid. This means the total mechanical energy of the fluid is conserved, making Choice C the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because Bernoulli's principle involves the conservation of the total mechanical energy, not just pressure, velocity, or density alone.

2. How many ounces are in 3 quarts?

• A. 64 ounces
• B. 32 ounces
• C. 48 ounces
• D. 96 ounces

Correct answer: D

Rationale: There are 32 ounces in a quart. Therefore, 3 quarts would be equal to 3 quarts x 32 ounces = 96 ounces. The correct answer is D. Choice A, 64 ounces, is incorrect as it miscalculates the conversion from quarts to ounces. Choice B, 32 ounces, is the conversion for 1 quart, not 3 quarts. Choice C, 48 ounces, is also an incorrect calculation, not considering the correct conversion rate.

3. A gross is equal to 12 dozen. If Lanyard Farms sells 15 gross of eggs a week and packages them in one dozen egg containers, how many containers do they need for a week’s worth of eggs?

• A. 15
• B. 150
• C. 180
• D. 2,160

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Given that a gross is equal to 12 dozen, 15 gross of eggs would be equal to 15 * 12 = 180 dozen eggs. Since the eggs are packaged in one dozen egg containers, Lanyard Farms would need 180 containers for a week's worth of eggs. Choice A (15) is incorrect as it represents the number of gross, not containers. Choice B (150) is incorrect as it miscalculates the total number of containers needed. Choice D (2,160) is incorrect as it overestimates the number of containers required.

4. What word is best to fill in the blank in the following sentence? Jenny loaned Luis 50 dollars, and he repaid ___________ within the month.

• A. her
• B. she
• C. him
• D. its

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In this sentence, the pronoun should refer to Luis, who borrowed the money. Since Luis is a male, the correct pronoun to use in this context is 'him.' Therefore, the correct answer is 'him.' Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not match the gender of Luis or do not make sense in the context of the sentence.

5. What does Ominous mean?

• A. Insignificant
• B. Significantly important and dangerous
• C. Trivial
• D. Harmless

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Ominous means giving the impression that something bad or unpleasant is going to happen; threatening; inauspicious. This choice is correct as it accurately reflects the meaning of the term 'Ominous.' Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they all suggest a lack of importance, danger, or threat, which is opposite to the actual meaning of 'Ominous.'
