Answer the following question given this paragraph: How the Work-Energy Theorem Applies Now let us consider what form the work-energy theorem takes when both conservative and nonconservative forces act. We will see that the work done by nonconservative forces equals the change in the mechanical energy of a system. As noted in Kinetic Energy and the Work-Energy Theorem, the work-energy theorem states that the net work on a system equals the change in its kinetic energy, or W net = KE . The net work is the sum of the work by nonconservative forces plus the work by conservative forces. That is,. Q: The work-energy theorem states that the net work on a system equals the change in what type of energy? Choices: - binary energy - new energy - residual energy - kinetic energy A:
kinetic energy

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The part of each nephron called the glomerulus is where blood in the capillaries is filtered. Excess water and wastes are filtered out of the blood. The tubule of the nephron collects these substances. Some of the water is reabsorbed. The remaining fluid is urine. Q: Which part of the nephron collects wastes in the blood? Choices: - filter - vesicle - waste sac - tubule A:
tubule

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Atherosclerosis normally begins in late childhood and is typically found in most major arteries. It does not usually have any early symptoms. Causes of atherosclerosis include a high-fat diet, high cholesterol, smoking, obesity, and diabetes. Atherosclerosis becomes a threat to health when the plaque buildup prevents blood circulation in the heart or the brain. A blocked blood vessel in the heart can cause a heart attack. Blockage of the circulation in the brain can cause a stroke. Q: What can happen if there is a blockage in circulation to the brain? Choices: - memory - automation - hydration - stroke A:
stroke

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Lasers Most light emitted by atoms is polychromaticcontaining more than one wavelength. In contrast, lasers (from light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) emitmonochromatic light a single wavelength only. Lasers have many applications in fiber-optic telecommunications, the reading and recording of compact discs (CDs) and digital video discs (DVDs), steel cutting, and supermarket checkout scanners. Laser beams are generated by the same general phenomenon that gives rise to emission spectra, with one difference: only a single excited state is produced, which in principle results in only a single frequency of emitted light. In practice, however, inexpensive commercial lasers actually emit light with a very narrow range of wavelengths. How a CD player uses a laser to read a CD. Inside a CD is a flat, light-reflecting layer called "land. " On the land are many "pits" recorded in a spiral-shaped track. (From the laser's point of view, pits are actually the "bumps" shown here because the master disc with pits is duplicated negatively, turning the pits into bumps. ) Pits have the same light-reflecting surface as land, but there are differences in the frequencies of the reflected light in the pit and the land, making light reflected by pits relatively dark compared with light reflected by land. Q: Light emitted by atoms is polychromaticcontaining more than one of these? Choices: - gravity - filter - weight - wavelength A:
wavelength
