HESI A2 Physics Quizlet

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Ketchup. Ketchup is a common example of a shear-thinning fluid because its viscosity decreases under shear stress. When force is applied to ketchup, its resistance decreases, making it easier to flow. This behavior is characteristic of shear-thinning fluids, where viscosity decreases with increasing shear rate. Water (Choice A) is a Newtonian fluid with constant viscosity, while Air (Choice C) and Alcohol (Choice D) do not exhibit shear-thinning behavior. Therefore, B is the correct choice.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Displacement is the shortest distance between the initial and final points of the walk. Since Jon walks around a rectangular park, his start and end points are the same, hence the displacement is 0 km. The distance traveled is the actual path length covered, which is equal to the perimeter of the rectangle (2+2+1+1=6 km). Therefore, the correct statement is that the displacement of his walk is 0 kilometers, and the distance traveled is 6 kilometers. Summary: A: Incorrect. Displacement cannot be greater than the distance traveled when walking in a closed loop. B: Incorrect. Displacement should be 0 km for a closed loop walk. C: Incorrect. Displacement cannot be greater than the total perimeter of the walk.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To calculate current, we use the formula I = P/V, where P is power in watts and V is voltage in volts. In this case, the power is 780 watts and the voltage is 120 volts. Therefore, I = 780/120 = 6.5 amperes. Choice C is correct. Choice A (660 amperes) is incorrect as it is an unrealistic and excessively high value for current in this scenario. Choice B (150 amperes) is incorrect as it does not align with the calculated value using the formula. Choice D (0.15 amperes) is incorrect as it is the decimal form of the correct answer but not expressed in amperes.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To calculate momentum, we use the formula p = mv, where p is momentum, m is mass, and v is velocity. Given mass = 45g = 0.045kg and velocity = 42m/s. Substituting the values, we get p = 0.045kg * 42m/s = 1.89 kg⋅m/s. Therefore, the correct answer is B (1.89 kg⋅m/s). Choice A: Incorrect. 0.189 kg⋅m/s is obtained by incorrectly calculating the product of mass and velocity. Choice C: Incorrect. 1.07 kg⋅m/s is not the correct calculation of momentum based on the given values. Choice D: Incorrect. 0.93 kg⋅m/s is an incorrect calculation and does not represent the momentum of the baseball accurately.
