Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta
A ruler is used to measure the length of a nail. What is the length of the nail?
Respuesta
  • 1.3 cm
  • 2.9 cm
  • 5.2 cm
  • 8.1 cm

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
In an experiment, two students investigated the speed and frequency of waves on the sea. This is shown is Fig. 3.1. The two students stood 60 metres apart on a pier that projected a long way into the sea. Student A waved his hand when a wave passed him. At that moment, student B started a clock. Student B watched the wave as it moved towards him. When the wave reached him, he stopped the clock. The students repeated this procedure until they had four results. Fig. 3.2 shows the clock dials for the four results. Read the dials and then determine: (i) the average time taken for the wave to travel 60.0 metres . (ii) the average speed of the wave.
Respuesta
  • (i) 45.5 s (ii) 0.76 m/s
  • (i) 46 s (ii) 0.77 m/s
  • (i) 45.5 s (ii) 0.8 m/s
  • (i) 46 s (ii) 0.8 m/s

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
Fig. 2.1 shows the lower surface of a leaf from a dicotyledonous plant, on a 1 cm^2 grid. Calculate the surface area of the leaf in Fig. 2.1. Surface area = [blank_start]33[blank_end] cm^2.
Respuesta
  • 33
