MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Matter Is Measured In
A. Kilograms
B. Joules
C. Electron Volts
D. Rems
ANS: A
Matter Is Measured In Kilograms.
Matter Refers To Anything That Has Mass And Occupies Space. The Standard Unit Of
Mass In The International System Of Units (SI) Is The Kilogram (Kg). Joules Measure
Energy, Electron Volts Measure Atomic-Scale Energy, And Rems Measure Radiation
Dose, Not Matter.
2. Atoms And Molecules Are The Fundamental Building Blocks Of
A. Energy
B. Radiation
C. Matter
D. Gravity
ANS: C
Atoms And Molecules Are The Fundamental Building Blocks Of Matter.
Matter Is Composed Of Atoms, Which Combine To Form Molecules. Energy And
Radiation Are Phenomena Associated With Matter, But They Are Not Its Building
Blocks. Gravity Is A Force Acting On Matter, Not A Constituent Of It.
