Physical science can be defined as the study of matter and energy. Matter refers to all the "stuff" that exists in the universe. It includes everything you can see and many things that you cannot see, including the air around you. Energy is what gives matter the ability to move and change. Energy can take many forms, s...

The difference between the squares of two consecutive odd integers is always divisible by:
[ "3", "7", "8", "9" ]
C
Let the two consecutive odd integers be (2x + 1) and (2x + 3) Then, (2x + 3)2 - (2x + 1)2 = (2x + 3 + 2x + 1) (2x + 3 - 2x - 1) = (4x + 4)(2) = 8 (x + 1), which is always divisible by 8 ANSWER:D

A lemonade stand sold only small and large cups of lemonade on Tuesday. 3/5 of the cups sold were small and the rest were large. If the large cups were sold for 11/5 as much as the small cups, what fraction of Tuesday's total revenue was from the sale of large cups?
[ "(d) 22/37", "(b) 7/15", "(e) 1/2", "(a) 7/16" ]
A
A simpler way i guess would be to think that in total 5 cups were sold. Out of which 3 are small and 2 are large. Now let the small ones cost $5. so the large ones would cost $11. So, 3*5=15 and 2*11=22. Total revenue was 15+22=37 and Large cup sales as found above is 22 Therefore answer is 22/37 D

Bruce purchased 8kg of grapes at the rate of 70 per kg and 8 kg of mangoes at the rate of 55 per kg. How much amount did he pay to the shopkeeper?
[ "B)1050", "A)1040", "D)1065", "C)1000" ]
D
Cost of 8 kg grapes = 70 × 8 = 560. Cost of 8 kg of mangoes = 55 × 8 = 440. Total cost he has to pay = 560 + 440 = 1000 C

What is the message sent from the nucleus to the ribosome?
[ "rna", "mrna", "dna", "mitochondria" ]
B
The mRNA is the message sent from the nucleus to the ribosome, the organelle of protein synthesis. Like a foreign language, the genetic code of the mRNA message must then be translated so that the ribosomes make the correct protein. The process of reading the code of a mRNA to make a protein is called translation.

Point to note: Both the wheels would have traveled the same distance. Now consider, no. of revolutions made by back wheel as x, which implies that the number of revolutions made by the front wheel is (x+5).
