He is going faster and in a different direction during the first 10 minutes than in the last 10 minutes.
He is speeding up during the first 10 minutes and slowing down during the last 10 minutes.
He is going slower and in a different direction during the first 10 minutes than in the last 10 minutes.
Sorry for the confusion earlier. Looking at the graph, we can see that the person is moving at a constant pace during the first 10 minutes and then slows down for the remaining 10 minutes. Therefore, the correct statement would be "He is speeding up during the first 10 minutes and slowing down during the last 10 minutes."
What does a horizontal line on a position-time graph indicate about the object?
A horizontal line on a position-time graph indicates that the object is not moving, i.e., its position is not changing with time. The slope of a position-time graph represents the object's velocity, so a horizontal line indicates that the velocity of the object is zero.
What does a horizontal line on a position-time graph indicate about the object?
*

The object is accelerating.
The object has a position of zero.
The object remains still.
A horizontal line on a position-time graph indicates that the object is remaining still, i.e., its position is not changing with time. Therefore, the correct answer is "The object remains still."
Which option is the force with the greatest magnitude?
*
1 point
The force needed to lift a pencil
The force needed to lift a hairbrush
The force needed to lift a chair
It is difficult to determine the force with the greatest magnitude among the given options without knowing the weight of each object being lifted. If we assume that all three objects have the same weight, then the force needed to lift the chair would have the greatest magnitude as the weight of the chair is greater than that of a pencil or hairbrush. However, if the weight of each object is different, then the force with the greatest magnitude would be the one required to lift the heaviest object.
A box is against a wall. A person pushes on the box, but the box does not move. Is this situation an example of a force?
*
1 point
No, this is not an example of a force because the box did not move.
Yes, this is an example of a force because a force is a push or pull.
No, this is not an example of a force because a force pulls an object.
Yes, this is an example of a force. A force is a push or pull that is applied to an object, and in this case, a person is pushing on the box. Although the box does not move, the person is still applying a force on it.
When you trip, your foot stops, but your body continues to move forward. Which statement best explains why this happens?
*
1 point
The unbalanced force that stops your foot pulls your body forward.
An unbalanced force pushes your body forward.
An unbalanced force stops your foot but does not act on the rest of your body
The correct statement that best explains why this happens is "An unbalanced force stops your foot but does not act on the rest of your body." When you trip, the ground or an obstacle stops your foot very suddenly, and the rest of your body continues moving forward due to inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion, thus your body continues moving forward with the same velocity it had before you tripped.
Which is a good description of kinetic energy?
*
1 point
Conserved energy
Energy of motion
Stored energy
A good description of kinetic energy is "Energy of motion." Kinetic energy is the energy that an object possesses due to its motion. The amount of kinetic energy is directly proportional to the object's mass and the square of its velocity.
A person throws a ball up into the air. At which point in its path will the ball have the greatest potential energy?
*
1 point
When the ball is still rising
When the ball reaches its highest point
When the ball leaves the person’s hand
When the ball hits the ground
The highest point in the ball's path is where it will have the greatest potential energy. Therefore, the correct answer is "When the ball reaches its highest point." At this point, the ball has zero kinetic energy and maximum potential energy, as it has been raised to the greatest height above the ground.
This image of a roller coaster is designed to show important information about potential and kinetic energy. One of these pieces of information is incorrect. Which information is wrong, and why?
*
1 point
The roller coaster would only have kinetic energy at the point labeled “gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.”
The spot with the “maximum kinetic energy” should be on the lowest point of the roller coaster, at the far left side on the bottom.
The roller coaster would only have potential energy at the point labeled “gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.”
The incorrect piece of information is "The roller coaster would only have kinetic energy at the point labeled 'gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.'" This statement is not correct, as the roller coaster has kinetic energy at all points along its path, except when it is momentarily at rest at the highest or lowest points. The roller coaster has the maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point of the roller coaster, at the far left side on the bottom, so the statement "The spot with the 'maximum kinetic energy' should be on the lowest point of the roller coaster, at the far left side on the bottom" is not incorrect.
Two students drop an object into sand from a height of 1.5 meters. They record the depth of the hole made in the sand by each student’s object. What is the most likely explanation for the results?
*
1 point
Maddie’s object has a smaller width.
Naveed’s object has less mass.
Naveed’s object had greater kinetic energy.
The most likely explanation for the results is "Naveed’s object had greater kinetic energy." The depth of the hole made in the sand depends on the amount of kinetic energy transferred from the falling object to the sand upon impact. Since both objects were dropped from the same height, their potential energies were the same, but the kinetic energy of an object depends on its mass and velocity. If Naveed's object had a higher mass or a greater velocity than Maddie's, then it would have more kinetic energy when it hit the sand, leading to a deeper hole. Therefore, the correct option is "Naveed’s object had greater kinetic energy."
A student wants to determine the effect of mass on kinetic energy. She will drop two balls of the same size into a pool of water. Which investigation method should the student use?
*
1 point
She should drop two balls with different masses from different heights.
She should drop two balls with different masses from the same height.
She should drop two balls of the same mass from different heights.
To determine the effect of mass on kinetic energy, the student should drop two balls of different masses from the same height. Since the potential energy of a falling object depends on its mass and height, dropping two balls of different masses from different heights would introduce a second variable (height), which could affect the kinetic energy of the balls. To isolate the effect of mass, both balls should be dropped from the same height so that their potential energies are equal. Therefore, the student should use the method of dropping two balls with different masses from the same height.
Which statement explains how the charges on objects determine the electric force between them?
*
1 point
Objects with positive charges attract each other, and objects with negative charges repel each other.
Objects with the same charge attract each other, and objects with opposite charges repel each other.
Objects with positive charges repel each other, and objects with negative charges attract each other.
Objects with the same charge repel each other, and objects with opposite charges attract each other.
The correct statement that explains how the charges on objects determine the electric force between them is "Objects with the same charge repel each other, and objects with opposite charges attract each other." Electric charge is a fundamental property of matter, and objects can have a positive, negative, or neutral charge. Electric charge creates electric fields, which exert a force on other charges within the field. Like charges (positive-positive or negative-negative) repel each other, while opposite charges (positive-negative) attract each other. Therefore, objects with the same charge will repel each other, and objects with opposite charges will attract each other.
Why is glass a good insulator?
*
1 point
The atoms in glass hold on tightly to their negatively charged particles.
The atoms in glass hold on tightly to their positively charged particles.
The atoms in glass do not hold on tightly to their negatively charged particles.
Glass is a good insulator because "The atoms in glass hold on tightly to their negatively charged particles." Glass is made up of non-metallic materials with tightly held electrons, which do not move through the material very easily. Electrons are negatively charged particles that allow electric current to flow through a material when they move. As the electrons in glass are tightly held, they do not move easily, making it difficult for electric current to pass through the material. Therefore, glass is a good insulator and is often used to coat electrical wires to prevent the flow of electricity outside the wire.
Which statement describes a difference between insulators and conductors?
*
1 point
Insulators have high resistance, while conductors have low resistance.
Insulators can transmit electric current, while conductors cannot.
Insulators have high conductivity, while conductors have low conductivity.
The correct statement that describes a difference between insulators and conductors is "Insulators have high resistance, while conductors have low resistance." Insulators are materials that do not allow electric charges to move through them easily, while conductors are materials that allow electric charges to flow through them with little or no resistance. Resistance is the measure of how much a material opposes the flow of electric current. Insulators have high resistance, which means that they hinder or limit the electric current flowing through them, while conductors have low resistance, which allows electric current to flow through them easily. Therefore, the statement "Insulators have high resistance, while conductors have low resistance" describes a difference between insulators and conductors.
Which energy transformation happens when a toaster is plugged in to an outlet in the wall and used to make toast?
*
1 point
Electrical energy from the outlet is converted completely to heat energy for the toaster.
Electrical energy from the outlet is converted to heat and chemical energy in the toast.
Electrical energy from the outlet is converted to heat and light energy for the toaster.
The correct energy transformation that happens when a toaster is plugged in to an outlet in the wall and used to make toast is "Electrical energy from the outlet is converted to heat energy for the toaster." The toaster uses electrical energy from the outlet to heat up its heating elements, which then transfer the heat to the bread slices. As a result, electrical energy is transformed into thermal energy, which is used to cook the toast. Therefore, the statement "Electrical energy from the outlet is converted completely to heat energy for the toaster" describes the energy transformation that happens when using a toaster.

Which purpose does a light bulb serve in a circuit?
The purpose of a light bulb in a circuit is to act as a load. A load is any device or component in a circuit that consumes electrical energy and converts it into another form of energy such as light, heat, or motion. In the case of a light bulb, electrical energy is used to generate light energy, which makes the bulb glow or produce light. When connected to a circuit, the light bulb acts as a resistive load that slows down the flow of electrical current passing through the circuit.
Of these things in an environment, which one is a living thing?
air
river flowing down a mountain
mushrooms sprouting
clay on the side of the riverbank
The living thing among these options is "mushrooms sprouting". Mushrooms are a type of fungi that are living organisms and can grow and reproduce under suitable environmental conditions. The other options, including air, river flowing down a mountain, and clay on the side of the riverbank, are non-living things in the environment.
One reason animal cells don't need a central vacuole is because they often have smaller vacuoles for storage. What is another reason animal cells don't need central vacuoles?
*
1 point
Animals do not produce their own food.
Animal cells have cell walls.
Animal bodies have skeletons or other means of providing structure.
Another reason animal cells don't need central vacuoles is because "Animal bodies have skeletons or other means of providing structure." In contrast to plant cells, animal cells do not require a large central vacuole to provide support and maintain rigidity as they have different structures for support and movement. For instance, animal bodies have skeletons or other means of providing structure, such as contractile fibers in muscle cells. Therefore, the statement "Animal bodies have skeletons or other means of providing structure" explains another reason why animal cells do not need central vacuoles.
Which statement is correct about organelles that provide energy?
They are found only in animal cells.
They are responsible for cellular respiration.
They are found only in plant cells.
The correct statement about organelles that provide energy is "They are responsible for cellular respiration." The organelles responsible for cellular respiration are called mitochondria, and they are found in both animal and plant cells. Mitochondria produce ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell, by breaking down molecules such as glucose and fatty acids through a biochemical process called cellular respiration. Therefore, the statement "They are responsible for cellular respiration" explains the correct information about organelles that provide energy.
Unicellular cells must carry out ___ of life.
*
1 point
all functions
a single function
specific functions
a few functions
Unicellular cells must carry out "all functions" of life. Unicellular organisms are single-celled organisms that carry out all the necessary functions of life, including obtaining and processing energy, responding to the environment, reproducing, and maintaining homeostasis, in a single cell. Unlike multicellular organisms, which have specialized cells to perform different functions, unicellular organisms exist as independent individuals and individually perform all the functions required for their survival and reproduction. Therefore, the correct answer is "all functions."
What is the function of a nerve cell in a multicellular organism?
produce and manage movement
store and distribute oxygen
carry and transmit signals
The function of a nerve cell in a multicellular organism is to "carry and transmit signals". Nerve cells, also called neurons, are specialized cells that are responsible for transmitting electrical and chemical signals throughout the body. These signals help organisms to sense and respond to changes in the environment, to coordinate the actions of different organs and tissues, and to communicate with other organisms. Therefore, the correct answer is "carry and transmit signals."
Which system is most complex?
cells
organs
organ systems
The most complex system among the given options is "organ systems." Cells are the basic unit of life, while organs are groups of cells that work together to perform specific functions within an organism. Organ systems, on the other hand, are groups of organs that interact with one another and perform complex functions to support the life of the organism. Organ systems are the most complex level of biological organization as they involve the coordination and integration of multiple organs and tissues to perform specific functions such as circulation, respiration, digestion, and reproduction. Therefore, the correct answer is "organ systems."
Which example shows an organism that cannot reach homeostasis through internal changes?
*
1 point
A lizard is cold, and it moves to a sunny rock to warm up.
A dog shivers when it is too cold.
A person gets a fever in response to a flu infection.
The correct example that shows an organism that cannot reach homeostasis through internal changes is "A person gets a fever in response to a flu infection." Homeostasis refers to the ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment despite external fluctuations. To maintain homeostasis, organisms respond to external changes through internal mechanisms, such as sweating, shivering, or releasing hormones. However, in the case of getting a fever due to a flu infection, the body cannot reach homeostasis through internal changes alone, and therefore, it responds by increasing its internal temperature to fight the infection. This is an example of external changes that cannot be countered through internal mechanisms alone. Therefore, the answer is "A person gets a fever in response to a flu infection."
