1. What is the diameter of a loop if its radius is 6 meters?

• A. 6 m
• B. 12 m
• C. 18 m
• D. 36 m

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The diameter of a loop is calculated by multiplying the radius by 2. Since the radius is 6 meters, the diameter is 6 × 2 = 12 meters. Therefore, the correct answer is 12 meters. Choice A (6 m) is the radius, not the diameter. Choices C (18 m) and D (36 m) are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation for determining the diameter of a loop.

2. Jon walks all the way around a rectangular park that is 1 km × 2 km. Which statement is true about Jon’s walk?

• A. The displacement of his walk is 3 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 0 kilometers.
• B. The displacement of his walk is 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 16 kilometers.
• C. The displacement of his walk is 6 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 0 kilometers.
• D. The displacement of his walk is 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 6 kilometers.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Jon walks all the way around a rectangular park that is 1 km × 2 km, which means he walks a total distance of 6 kilometers (1 km + 2 km + 1 km + 2 km = 6 km). However, the displacement of his walk is 0 kilometers because he starts and ends at the same point after completing the rectangular path around the park. Displacement refers to the change in position from the starting point to the ending point, regardless of the actual distance traveled. Choice A is incorrect because the total distance traveled by Jon is 6 kilometers, not 0 kilometers. Choice B is incorrect as the displacement is not 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 6 kilometers, not 16 kilometers. Choice C is incorrect because the displacement is 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 6 kilometers, not 0 kilometers.

3. In a scenario where a transverse wave transports energy from north to south, in what direction do the particles in the medium move?

• A. Only north to south
• B. Both northward and southward
• C. Only east to west
• D. Both eastward and westward

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In a transverse wave, particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of energy transport. When the wave transports energy from north to south, the particles in the medium oscillate up and down, causing them to move both northward and southward. Choice A is incorrect because the particles move in both directions, not only from north to south. Choices C and D are incorrect as they mention directions that are not relevant to the scenario described in the question.

4. The Prandtl number (Pr) is a dimensionless property relating:

• A. Viscosity and thermal diffusivity
• B. Density and pressure
• C. Surface tension and pressure
• D. Reynolds number and flow regime

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The Prandtl number (Pr) is a dimensionless number used to characterize fluid flow. It is the ratio of momentum diffusivity to thermal diffusivity. In simpler terms, it relates the ability of a fluid to conduct heat to its ability to conduct momentum. Therefore, the correct relationship is between viscosity and thermal diffusivity, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not represent the properties that the Prandtl number relates.

5. A 2,000-kg car travels at 15 m/s. For a 1,500-kg car traveling at 15 m/s to generate the same momentum, what would need to happen?

• A. It would need to accelerate to 20 m/s.
• B. It would need to add 500 kg in mass.
• C. Both A and B
• D. Either A or B

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Momentum is calculated as the product of mass and velocity. Since momentum is conserved in the absence of external forces, for the 1,500-kg car to generate the same momentum as the 2,000-kg car at 15 m/s, it would need to increase its velocity to compensate for the difference in mass. Accelerating to 20 m/s would achieve this without needing to change the mass of the car. Choice B is incorrect because adding mass is not necessary to match momentum in this scenario.
