Question: 589 image


  1. a pulley

  2. a siphon

  3. a gauge

  4. a spring




Answer: B

To use a siphon, you would first submerge the entire length of hose in tank 1 in order to completely fill it with water. You would then place one end of the hose in

tank 1 and the other end in tank 2, as shown in the diagram. Since the end of the hose in tank 2 is lower than the end in tank 1, the extra weight of the water in the

right side of the hose will cause the water to flow into tank 2.

Question: 595

Which of the following statements is true concerning the differences between an electric motor and a gas-powered engine?


  1. There are no differences, the devices are essentially the same.

  2. An electric motor requires an external power source other than itself to operate.

  3. Gas-powered engines are safer to use in a confined space or area.

  4. Electric motors tend to produce more noise then gas-powered engines.




Answer: B

An electric motor requires an external power source to operate, whereas an engine consumes fuel and powers itself, usually with an internal combustion engine. Gas- powered engines should be used with caution in confined spaces because they will produce harmful emissions, whereas electric motors typically do not. Electric motors and electrically powered tools tend to be quieter than similar gas-powered tools.

Question: 601

Newton’s First Law of physics says, ―A body (such as a car) that is in motion along a straight line will remain in motion, at the same speed, along the same

straight line, unless acted upon by an outside force.‖ A car is traveling down a straight, flat road at 30 miles per hour. The operation of all but one of the items

listed below can help demonstrate Newton’s First Law.Which itemcannot be used to demonstrate this law?


  1. the brakes

  2. the gas pedal

such a force. Newton’s First Law also says that the vehicle will travel along the same straight line unless an outside force—the action of the steering wheel, for

instance—is applieD. The radiator does not affect the speed or direction of the car’s motion.
