1. For a compressible fluid subjected to rapid pressure changes, sound wave propagation becomes important. The speed of sound (c) depends on the fluid's:

• A. Density (ρ) only
• B. Viscosity (μ) only
• C. Density (ρ) and Bulk modulus
• D. Density (ρ) and Surface tension (γ)

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In a compressible fluid, the speed of sound (c) depends on both the fluid's density (ρ) and Bulk modulus. Density affects the compressibility of the fluid, while Bulk modulus represents the fluid's resistance to compression and plays a crucial role in determining the speed of sound in a compressible medium. Viscosity and surface tension do not directly impact the speed of sound in a compressible fluid subjected to rapid pressure changes. Therefore, the correct answer is C.

2. A UTI is likely to involve the ___________.

• A. bones
• B. throat
• C. stomach
• D. bladder

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) is likely to involve the bladder. A urinary tract infection is an infection in any part of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The most common type of UTI is a bladder infection where bacteria enter the bladder and cause inflammation and infection. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because a UTI specifically affects the urinary tract system and not the bones, throat, or stomach.

3. Square: A garden bed has a side length of 8 meters. What is its perimeter?

• A. 16m
• B. 24m
• C. 32m
• D. 64m

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The perimeter of a square is found by adding up all four sides. Since all sides of a square are equal in length, the perimeter is calculated by multiplying the side length by 4. In this case, the side length of the square garden bed is 8 meters. Therefore, the perimeter is 8m x 4 = 32m. Choice A (16m) is incorrect as it represents only half of the perimeter. Choice B (24m) is incorrect because it is the perimeter of a square with a side length of 6 meters, not 8 meters. Choice D (64m) is incorrect as it represents the area of the square, not the perimeter.

4. What type of cell is an animal cell?

• A. Prokaryotic
• B. Eukaryotic
• C. Plant Cell
• D. Bacterial Cell

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, eukaryotic. Animal cells are classified as eukaryotic cells because they contain membrane-bound organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, and endoplasmic reticulum. Choice A, prokaryotic, is incorrect as prokaryotic cells lack membrane-bound organelles. Choice C, Plant Cell, is incorrect as the question specifically asks about animal cells. Choice D, Bacterial Cell, is incorrect as bacteria are prokaryotic cells.

5. What is the correct verb to complete the sentence? 'Economics ___ my least favorite subject at school.'

• A. Is
• B. Been
• C. Am
• D. Are

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Is.' In this sentence, 'Economics' is being treated as a singular subject, so the verb should also be singular. 'Is' is the correct singular form of the verb to agree with the singular subject 'Economics.' Choice B, 'Been,' is incorrect because it is the past participle form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.' Choice C, 'Am,' is incorrect because it is the first-person singular form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.' Choice D, 'Are,' is incorrect because it is the plural form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.'
