1. While researching Chomsky's many theories and arguments, Teddy became interested in post-World War II anarchism. Which section of the library is the most likely to contain the relevant books?

• A. 000
• B. 200
• C. 300
• D. 900

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Since anarchism is a social science theory, it falls under the classification of social sciences in the Dewey Decimal System. Section 300 covers social sciences, making it the most suitable section for finding books related to post-World War II anarchism. Choice A (000 - Computer science), Choice B (200 - Religion), and Choice D (900 - History) are incorrect because they do not directly relate to social sciences where anarchism would be classified.

2. Which muscle is voluntary, striated, and found attached to bones?

• A. Smooth muscle
• B. Skeletal muscle
• C. Cardiac muscle
• D. Epithelial muscle

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, Skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is both voluntary and striated, as well as attached to bones, allowing for movement. Smooth muscle, on the other hand, is involuntary and typically found in the walls of internal organs, controlling functions like digestion. Cardiac muscle is also striated, but it is involuntary and specifically found in the heart, responsible for cardiac contractions to pump blood. 'Epithelial muscle' is an incorrect term; epithelial tissue is a type of tissue that forms the linings of various body surfaces and structures, not a muscle type.

3. Which structure in the digestive system absorbs the most nutrients?

• A. Stomach
• B. Small intestine
• C. Large intestine
• D. Esophagus

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The small intestine is the primary site where the absorption of nutrients from digested food occurs. Its large surface area, specialized cells, and villi play key roles in maximizing nutrient absorption, making it the structure in the digestive system that absorbs the most nutrients. The stomach's main function is to break down food with acid and enzymes, not absorb nutrients. The large intestine primarily absorbs water and electrolytes, not nutrients. The esophagus is a muscular tube that connects the throat with the stomach and does not play a role in nutrient absorption.

4. What is 0.5 liter in ounces?

• A. 16.91 oz
• B. 15.91 oz
• C. 17.91 oz
• D. 18.91 oz

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to ounces, you need to multiply the liter value by 33.814. Therefore, to convert 0.5 liters to ounces, you would calculate 0.5 x 33.814 = 16.91 ounces. This conversion factor is commonly used in cooking and liquid measurements. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion from liters to ounces.

5. What happens to the gravitational potential energy of an object as it falls freely?

• A. It decreases
• B. It increases
• C. It remains constant
• D. It becomes zero

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'It decreases.' When an object falls freely, its height decreases, resulting in a decrease in gravitational potential energy. The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the object accelerates due to gravity. This conversion process continues until the object reaches the ground or its lowest point, where the gravitational potential energy is minimal or zero. Choice B is incorrect because gravitational potential energy decreases, not increases, during free fall. Choice C is incorrect as gravitational potential energy changes due to the change in height. Choice D is incorrect as the gravitational potential energy does not instantly become zero but decreases gradually as the object falls.
