1.

What is the best shape through which we can model the path of a celestial body?

a)

A sphere with the center of motion away from the shape’s center

b)

An oval

c)

An ellipse

d)

A perfect circle

2.

Is it possible to measure the absolute energy in a system?

a)

No, as it is impossible to comprehensively account for every joule in the body

b)

No, as it is extremely cumbersome to account for every single molecule and atom in the body

c)

Yes, as bodies are not that large to measure energy for.

d)

No, as energy is a vector.

3.

Is it possible to measure both the position and momentum of a particle, at an atomic scale, at the same time?

a)

Not quite, although we can within a certain extent of accuracy.

b)

Not at all, owing to the untraceable velocity of electrons.

c)

Yes, as position and momentum both depend on the velocity of the electron.

d)

No, as electrons only absorb, but do not emit enough light to allow us to even vaguely determine their location.

4.

What is the value of the speed of light?

a)

3 x 10^8

b)

299,792,458 mi/s

c)

299,792,458 m/s

d)

300 miles per millisecond

5.

Why is it that conductors of electricity are able to let current pass through?

a)

Free electrons are present to transfer the current

b)

The atoms within the material are mobile enough to help conduction

c)

The materials provide no resistance across multiple temperatures

d)

The element has enough electrons

6.

Which is the best answer for why atomic radius decreases as you go across the periodic table?

a)

Electronegativity is decreasing

b)

The mass increases

c)

Ionization energy increases

d)

The atomic number increases

7.

Which of the sequences is the correct order of transferring information in most organisms?

a)

protein to DNA to RNA

b)

RNA to DNA to protein

c)

DNA to RNA to protein
