Q: What type of scale is the richter scale? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: 7. Like the Richter scale, the moment magnitude scale is logarithmic. The 2011 Tohoku earthquake in Japan was 9.0 and did tremendous damage. A few months earlier, an 8.8 struck Chile and did much less damage. Why?. Choices: - dimensional - algorithmic - asymmetric - logarithmic A:
logarithmic

Q: What is another term for nearsightedness? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Nearsightedness, or myopia, is the condition in which nearby objects are seen clearly, but distant objects are blurry. It occurs when the eyeball is longer than normal. This causes images to be focused in front of the retina. Myopia can be corrected with concave lenses. The lenses focus images farther back in the eye, so they are on the retina instead of in front of it. Choices: - hypoxia - glaucoma - anemia - myopia A:
myopia

Q: Q: What forms at the boundary between two air masses? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: A front forms at the boundary between two air masses. Types of fronts include cold, warm, occluded, and stationary fronts. Clouds, precipitation, and storms commonly occur along fronts. Choices: - a cool - hurricane - a rough - a front A:
A: a front

Question: Q: Which type of joints do not allow any movement of the bones? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The skull has fixed joints. Fixed joints do not allow any movement of the bones, which protects the brain from injury. Choices: - attached - linked - fitted - fixed A:
Answer: fixed

Q: What theory of gases describes this state of matter as composed of tiny particles in constant motion with a lot of distance between the particles? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The kinetic theory of gases describes this state of matter as composed of tiny particles in constant motion with a lot of distance between the particles. This model of gases explains some of the physical properties of gases. Because most of a gas is empty space, a gas has a low density and can expand or contract under the appropriate influence. The fact that gas particles are in constant motion means that two or more gases will always mix, as the particles from the individual gases move and collide with each other. An ideal gas is a gas that exactly follows the statements of the kinetic theory. Unfortunately, real gases are not ideal. Many gases deviate slightly from agreeing perfectly with the kinetic theory of gases. However, most gases adhere to the statements so well that the kinetic theory of gases is well accepted by the scientific community. Choices: - magnetic - thermal - optical - kinetic A:
(Answer)
kinetic
