1. What is the temperature in Celsius when it is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit?

• A. 35 Celsius
• B. 37 Celsius
• C. 38 Celsius
• D. 36.5 Celsius

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the formula (98.6 - 32) × 5/9. By solving this equation, the temperature is calculated to be 37°C. Therefore, the correct answer is B, 37 Celsius. Choice A, 35 Celsius, is incorrect because it is not the outcome of the conversion formula. Choice C, 38 Celsius, is incorrect as well, as it does not match the correct conversion result. Choice D, 36.5 Celsius, is also incorrect as it does not correspond to the accurate conversion from 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. What fact is stated about the Amazon Rainforest in the passage?

• A. The Amazon Rainforest is shrinking rapidly.
• B. The Amazon Rainforest is home to diverse species.
• C. The Amazon Rainforest is unaffected by human activity.
• D. The Amazon Rainforest contains few animals.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. The passage highlights the incredible biodiversity of the Amazon Rainforest, emphasizing its diverse species of plants and animals. The passage describes the rainforest as home to over 2,000 birds and mammals, with one in every five birds in the world living there. It also mentions the vast variety of insects, trees, and plants present in the rainforest, showcasing its rich ecosystem. Choice A is incorrect as the passage does not directly state that the Amazon Rainforest is shrinking rapidly, although it does mention the dangers it faces. Choice C is incorrect as the passage clearly indicates that human activity, such as deforestation, poses a significant threat to the rainforest. Choice D is incorrect as the passage provides evidence of a high number of animals inhabiting the Amazon Rainforest.

3. A system undergoes an isobaric process (constant pressure). In this process, the work done (W) by the system is:

• A. Zero, if the volume change (ΔV) is zero.
• B. Positive and equal to the pressure multiplied by the volume change (W = PΔV).
• C. Negative and equal to the pressure multiplied by the volume change.
• D. Independent of the pressure or volume change.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In an isobaric process (constant pressure), the work done is given by the formula W = PΔV, where P is the pressure and ΔV is the change in volume. If the volume does not change, the work done is zero, not negative. Choice A is incorrect as it states the work done is zero when the volume change is zero, which is the correct condition for zero work. Choice C is incorrect as it incorrectly suggests that the work done is negative in an isobaric process. Choice D is incorrect as the work done in an isobaric process is indeed dependent on the volume change and pressure.

4. A stop sign has five equal sides, each measuring 25cm. What is its perimeter?

• A. 100cm
• B. 125cm
• C. 150cm
• D. 175cm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: - Since a stop sign has five equal sides, each measuring 25cm, the perimeter can be calculated by adding up the lengths of all five sides. - Perimeter = 25cm + 25cm + 25cm + 25cm + 25cm = 125cm - Therefore, the perimeter of the stop sign is 125cm.

5. What number is 15, if it is 20% of that number?

• A. 3
• B. 45
• C. 75
• D. 300

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the number that 15 is 20% of, we set up the equation: x * 0.20 = 15. Solving for x, we get x = 15 / 0.20 = 75. Therefore, 15 is 20% of 75. Choice A, 3, is too small to be 20% of 15. Choice C, 75, is the result of the correct calculation. Choice D, 300, is too large to be 20% of 15.
