5. A supplier wants to make a profit by buying metal by weight at one altitude and selling it at the same price per pound at another altitude. The supplier should:

buy at a high altitude and sell at a low altitude.

4. A cannon recoils from firing a cannonball. The speed of the cannon's recoil is small because the:

cannon has more mass than the ball.

follow a straight-line path.

2. One object has twice as much mass as another object, and also has twice as much:

inertia

2. A bullet is dropped into a river from a very high bridge. At the same time, another bullet is fired from a gun, straight down towards the water. Neglecting air resistance, the acceleration just before striking the water:

is the same for each bullet.

2. Whenever the net force on an object is zero, its acceleration:

is zero.

3. A force is a vector quantity because it has both:

magnitude and direction.

2. Density is the ratio of:

mass to volume.

1. Science and technology are:

related to one another, but are not the same thing.

3. A sheet of paper can be withdrawn from under a container of milk without toppling it if the paper is jerked quickly. This best demonstrates that:

the milk carton has inertia.

5. If the Sun were twice as massive:

the pull of Earth on the Sun would double.

1. If experimental findings are not reproducible:

the results are not considered valid.

4. Two identical arrows, one with twice the kinetic energy of the other, are fired into a hay bale. The faster arrow will penetrate:

twice as far as the slower arrow.

2. Which direction does a table push a book resting on it?

up

2. As an object freely falls its:

velocity increases.

3. Two objects of the same size but unequal weights are dropped from a tall tower. Taking air resistance into consideration, the object to hit the ground first will be:

the heavier object

3. A push on a 1-kg brick accelerates the brick. Neglecting friction, to equally accelerate a 10-kg brick, one would have to push with:

10 times as much force.

4. A freight train rolls along a track with considerable momentum. If it rolls at the same speed but has twice as much mass, its momentum is:

Doubled

5. If the mass of Earth somehow increased with no change in radius, your weight would:

Increase also

5. Two objects move toward each other because of gravity. As the objects get closer and closer, the force between them:

Increases

4. Which of the following has the largest momentum relative to the Earth?

a pickup truck speeding along a highway

1. In science, a theory is:

a synthesis of a large body of well-tested knowledge.

5. Inside a freely falling elevator, there would be no:

apparent weight on you.

3. Neglecting friction, a large block of ice and a small block of ice start sliding down an incline together. The heavier block will get to the bottom:

at the same time as the light block.

1. When a scientist is dishonest and reports false information, he or she:

gets no second chance in the scientific community.

5. According to Newton, the greater the masses of interacting objects, the:

greater the gravitational force between them.
