Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
Solution: The magnets in Pair 2 attract. The magnets in Pair 1 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force.
Magnet sizes affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Imagine magnets that are the same shape and made of the same material. The smaller the magnets, the smaller the magnitude of the magnetic force between them.
Magnet A is the same size in both pairs. But Magnet B is smaller in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
a crayon melting in the sun
mixing sand and water
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
A crayon melting in the sun is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The crayon changes state from solid to liquid. The crayon is still made of wax, even after it melts.
Mixing sand and water is a physical change. Adding water makes the sand wet. But both the sand and water are still made of the same type of matter as before.
Step 2: Look at each answer choice.
Both are only physical changes.
Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created.
Both are chemical changes.
Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes.
Both are caused by heating.
A crayon melting in the sun is caused by heating. But mixing sand and water is not.
Both are caused by cooling.

Question: [QUESTION]Which text uses the word terribly in its traditional sense?
Solution: The first text uses terribly in its traditional sense: in a terrible manner.
Arianna decided to make escargots using the small snails from her garden, but she prepared them terribly. Since she'd forgotten to add garlic, the taste was disappointing.
The second text uses terribly in its nontraditional sense: extremely; very.
Arianna made escargots using the small snails from her garden. She prepared them according to the recipe but found the chewy texture terribly disappointing.
Most style guides recommend to use the traditional sense of the word terribly because it is considered more standard. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which text uses the word ironic in its traditional sense?
Solution: The second text uses ironic in its traditional sense: contrary to what was intended, often in an amusing way. It's ironic because Dale tried to get away from the snow but found himself in a snowstorm regardless.
Last winter, Dale took a vacation to Florida to escape Boston's cold, snowy weather. In an ironic twist, a rare snowstorm happened to hit Florida that week.
The first text uses ironic in its nontraditional sense: marked by coincidence. It was a coincidence that Dale's friends were in Florida the week before.
Last winter, Dale took a vacation to Florida to escape Boston's cold, snowy weather. In an ironic twist, he just missed a few of his college friends, who had been in Florida the previous week.
Most style guides recommend to avoid using the nontraditional sense of the word ironic because it is generally considered incorrect. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
