1. If a 5-kg ball is moving at 5 m/s, what is its momentum?

• A. 10 kg⋅m/s
• B. 16.2 km/h
• C. 24.75 kg⋅m/s
• D. 25 kg⋅m/s

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The momentum of an object is calculated by multiplying its mass by its velocity. In this case, the mass of the ball is 5 kg and its velocity is 5 m/s. Therefore, the momentum of the ball is 5 kg × 5 m/s = 25 kg⋅m/s. Choice A (10 kg⋅m/s) is incorrect as it does not account for both mass and velocity. Choice B (16.2 km/h) is incorrect as it provides a speed in a different unit without considering mass. Choice C (24.75 kg⋅m/s) is incorrect as it does not correctly calculate the momentum based on the given mass and velocity.

2. Enthalpy (H) is a thermodynamic property defined as the sum of a system's internal energy (U) and the product of its pressure (P) and volume (V). The relationship between these is:

• A. H = U + PV
• B. H = U - PV
• C. H = U / PV
• D. H = PV / U

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Enthalpy (H) is defined as H = U + PV, where U represents internal energy, P is pressure, and V is volume. Enthalpy includes both the internal energy of a system and the energy required to create space for the system against an external pressure. Therefore, the correct relationship between enthalpy, internal energy, pressure, and volume is H = U + PV. Choice B is incorrect as subtracting PV would not account for the work done against pressure. Choice C is incorrect as dividing U by PV doesn't represent the definition of enthalpy. Choice D is incorrect as dividing PV by U is not the correct relationship based on the definition of enthalpy.

3. What is the net force acting on the car?

• A. 450 N
• B. 700 N
• C. 1,500 N
• D. 6,300 N

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To determine the net force acting on an object, we need to consider the sum of the forces acting in the same direction and subtract the forces acting in the opposite direction. In this scenario, there is a force of 4,200 N to the right and a force of 2,700 N to the left. By subtracting the leftward force from the rightward force (4,200 N - 2,700 N), we find that the net force acting on the car is 1,500 N to the right. Therefore, choice C, 1,500 N, is the correct answer. Choice A, 450 N, is too small as it does not account for the total forces involved. Choice B, 700 N, is also incorrect as it is not the result of the correct mathematical operation on the given forces. Choice D, 6,300 N, is too large and does not align with the calculation based on the forces provided.

4. A circular running track has a circumference of 2,500 meters. What is the radius of the track?

• A. 1,000 m
• B. 400 m
• C. 25 m
• D. 12 m

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The radius of a circular track can be calculated using the formula: Circumference = 2 × π × radius. Given that the circumference of the track is 2,500 m, we can plug this into the formula and solve for the radius: 2,500 = 2 × π × radius. Dividing both sides by 2π gives: radius = 2,500 / (2 × 3.1416) ≈ 397.89 m. Therefore, the closest answer is 400 m, making option B the correct choice. Option A (1,000 m) is too large, option C (25 m) is too small, and option D (12 m) is significantly smaller than the calculated radius.

5. Which of the following materials has the lowest density?

• A. Water
• B. Cork
• C. Aluminum
• D. Steel

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Cork has the lowest density among the given options. Cork is a lightweight material derived from the bark of cork oak trees and is known for its low density, making it float on water. Water, aluminum, and steel have higher densities compared to cork. Water is denser than cork because it has a consistent density of 1 g/cm³. Aluminum and steel are metals with much higher densities due to their atomic structures, making them denser than cork.
