1. If someone is disseminating information, what are they doing?

• A. Hiding it
• B. Broadcasting it
• C. Destroying it
• D. Withholding it

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Broadcasting it.' Disseminating information means spreading or sharing it widely to reach a broader audience. Choice A, 'Hiding it,' is incorrect as disseminating involves making information known, not concealing it. Choice C, 'Destroying it,' is incorrect as disseminating means to distribute, not to eliminate. Choice D, 'Withholding it,' is incorrect because withholding information means keeping it back rather than sharing it openly.

2. What is matter that has a definite shape and volume?

• A. Liquid
• B. Solid
• C. Gas
• D. Plasma

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Matter that has a definite shape and volume is referred to as a solid. Solids maintain their shape and volume under normal conditions, unlike liquids that have a definite volume but take the shape of their container, gases that have neither a definite shape nor volume, and plasma which is a state of matter with no definite shape or volume and consists of charged particles.

3. 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.

4. Rectangle: A picture frame measures 15cm by 20cm. What is its perimeter?

• A. 30cm
• B. 55cm
• C. 65cm
• D. 75cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add the lengths of all sides. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2 * (length + width). In this case, the length is 15cm and the width is 20cm. Therefore, the perimeter = 2 * (15cm + 20cm) = 65cm. Choice A (30cm), Choice B (55cm), and Choice D (75cm) are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the perimeter of the given rectangle.

5. What are the horizontal rows of the periodic table called?

• A. Periods
• B. Families
• C. Groups
• D. Columns

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Periods. Rows in the periodic table are called periods. They are arranged horizontally from left to right and represent the energy levels of the elements. Each period starts a new energy level or shell, indicating the number of electron shells an element has. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Families and groups refer to vertical columns in the periodic table that share similar chemical properties, while columns are vertical arrangements of elements known as groups or families.
