1. In general, through which state of matter does sound travel the fastest?
Sound requires a medium to travel, and its speed is determined by the density and elasticity of that medium. Since particles are most closely packed and rigid in solids, vibrations are transferred most efficiently and quickly compared to liquids or gases. Sound cannot travel in a vacuum.
2. In the study of earthquakes, which type of seismic body wave travels the fastest and is capable of propagating through both solid rock and liquid layers, such as the Earth's outer core?
Primary waves (P-waves) are compressional waves that move fastest among seismic waves. Unlike Secondary (S) waves, which are shear waves and cannot pass through liquids, P-waves can travel through all states of matter, including the liquid outer core of the Earth.
3. What celestial object is commonly described by astronomers as a "cosmic snowball"?
Comets are frequently described as 'cosmic snowballs' or 'dirty snowballs' because they are composed of ice, dust, and rocky material that orbits the Sun.
4. Two-dimensional (2D) materials, when analyzed for their quantum phases, are known to potentially host which of the following phenomena?
The text identifies superconductivity and unique forms of magnetism as potentially valuable quantum phases hosted by two-dimensional materials under certain conditions.
5. In which mountain range were the fossilized bones of the dinosaur species Huayracursor Jaguensis discovered?
The source text specifies that these innovative origami robots, powered by soft magnetic muscles, are intended for 'biomedical use.'
8. What major geological theory explains the slow movement of Earth's continents and the formation of significant surface features like mountain ranges and ocean trenches?
Plate Tectonics is the scientific theory that describes the large-scale motion of Earth's lithosphere, which is divided into several major plates that slowly move over the mantle. This movement explains continental drift, earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of Earth's major geological features such as mountain ranges, ocean trenches, and rift valleys.
9. Which fundamental force is responsible for the attraction between objects with mass?
Gravitational force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature and is responsible for the attraction between any two objects that have mass, such as planets, stars, and everyday objects.
10. Which of the following celestial bodies is classified as an interstellar object?
3I/ATLAS is a known interstellar object, meaning it originated outside of our solar system. This classification is a fundamental and lasting characteristic of the object.
