What is the most important factor in ensuring a water filtration system works effectively?
What is the most important factor in ensuring a water filtration system works effectively?
The size of the filtration surface area. A larger surface area provides more space for water to be filtered, resulting in more effective removal of impurities.
What is the most likely focus of an experiment that observes a faster reaction rate at higher temperatures?
What is the most likely focus of an experiment that observes a faster reaction rate at higher temperatures?
The effect of temperature on the speed of a chemical reaction. Higher temperatures increase the rate of chemical reactions by providing more energy for molecules to collide and react.
Which scenario demonstrates Newton's third law of motion: a rocket launching?
Which scenario demonstrates Newton's third law of motion: a rocket launching?
Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this case, the rocket expels hot gases (action), and the expelled gases push back on the rocket (reaction), propelling it forward.

Study Notes
Science and Technology
- Water Filtration System: The most important factor for effective water filtration system design is the size of the filtration surface area.
- Chemical Reaction Rate: Temperature affects the rate of chemical reactions, likely relating to enzyme activity or the speed of reactions.
- Newton's Third Law: A rocket launching, gas expulsion from its engines, best illustrates Newton's Third Law.
- Pendulum Period: Increasing the string length of a pendulum will increase its period.
- Plant Growth and Light: To ensure valid results when studying light's effect on plant growth, keep factors like soil type and water amount constant.
Social Studies
- Downfall of Feudalism: The growth of trade and cities was a key factor in feudalism's decline in medieval Europe.
- U.S. Constitution Principle: The president's power to veto legislation highlights the principle of separation of powers in the U.S. Constitution.
- Manifest Destiny: Historians would use the concept of manifest destiny to explain the U.S. expansion during the 19th century.
