23. A teacher dropped one light ball & one heavy ball simultaneously from the roof of a school. Ignoring air resistance, both balls struck the ground at the same time because: • they lose mass as they fall • they are influenced by the height of the building • they don’t accelerate under the influence of gravitational force. • they accelerate at the same rate, regardless of mass, due to the force of gravity.

Pick the best example of Newton's 3rd Law. • A rocket taking off from earth which pushes gasses in one direction and the rocket in the other. • A rocket that is accelerating through space and exerts a great amount of force because its mass and acceleration is so large • A rocket sitting on the ground preparing for take-off but it needs an outside force to overcome its inertia of a non-moving object.

26. Which has greater momentum, a small pick-up truck traveling at 55 km/h or a full-sized bus traveling at the same speed? • The bus • The truck • Neither the bus nor truck

27. 2h h 1. Joe raised a box above the ground. If he lifts the same box twice as high, it has • four times the potential energy • twice the potential energy • there is no change in potential energy.

44. 3. Over what type of terrain are tornadoes most likely to occur? • Mountainous • Wet and swampy • Dry and flat • Snow covered

45. 4. During the beginning of the winter season in Ohio, when the cool air moves across the warm water of Lake Erie, we experience • A rain shadow • A tornado • Lake effect snow • Dry weather

46. 5. Warm air rising, colder air sinking is responsible for a • Warm front • Cold front • Convection current • Both 1 and 3

47. 6. During the daytime in the air by the coast of an ocean, the following occurs: • Warm air over the land rises. • Cool ocean air moves inland. • A sea breeze results. • All of the above.

48. In most areas of Ohio, the frost free growing season is 150 to 180 days. Farms close to Lake Erie have a growing season closer to 200 days. One explanation for this is that • Crops grown around the lake are frost resistant. • Industries around the lake prevent early freezes. • Irrigation water from the lake freezes at lower temperatures. • Heat given off by the lake extends the number of frost free days.
