Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The formula to calculate the energy required to heat a substance is Q = m c ΔT, where m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature. Given that 1 kilogram of water is equal to 1,000 grams, the mass (m) is 1,000 g, the specific heat capacity (c) of water is 4.2 J/g°C (not 2 J/g°C), and the change in temperature (ΔT) is 10°C. Substituting these values into the formula: Q = 1,000 4.2 10 = 42,000 J. Therefore, the correct energy required to heat 1 kilogram of water by 10°C is 42,000 J. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not consider the correct specific heat capacity of water or the conversion of mass to grams.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The frequency of a wave is the number of cycles it completes in one second. A wave with a frequency of 60 hertz completes 60 cycles per second. Therefore, choice C is correct. Choice A is incorrect because a frequency of 60 hertz means 60 cycles per second, not per minute. Choice B is incorrect as the frequency of the wave does not determine the distance from crest to crest. Choice D is also incorrect as the frequency does not relate to the distance from crest to trough.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The Reynolds number is a dimensionless quantity used to characterize the flow regime, specifically whether it is laminar (smooth) or turbulent (chaotic). It depends on the velocity of the fluid, its characteristic length (such as pipe diameter), and its viscosity. A low Reynolds number indicates laminar flow, while a high Reynolds number suggests turbulence. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because the Reynolds number is not related to fluid density, surface tension effects, or buoyancy force magnitude.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The work done by Amanda pushing the lawnmower is calculated by multiplying the force applied (100 N) by the distance over which the force is applied (the total distance mowed). Since Amanda mows 20 rows, each measuring 30 meters, the total distance mowed is 20 rows x 30 meters/row = 600 meters. Therefore, the work done is 100 N x 600 m = 60,000 Nâ‹…m. Option A and B are incorrect as they do not account for the total distance mowed. Option D is incorrect as the work done can be accurately calculated based on the information provided.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: When two wires carry current in the same direction, they create magnetic fields that interact with each other. This interaction results in an attractive force between the wires due to the alignment of their magnetic fields. Choice A is incorrect because the force can be predicted based on the direction of the currents and the magnetic fields produced. Choice B is incorrect because when currents flow in the same direction, they do not repel each other. Choice C is incorrect because there is indeed a force present due to the interaction of magnetic fields, resulting in attraction between the wires.
