WGU C165 Integrated Physical Sciences Exam 2023-2024Questions and Correct Detailed Answers 100% Graded
UNITS AND MEASUREMENTS
Question 1 of 5
Why is it important to have standard measures for physical quantities?
To make measurements, such as length, easier to perform.
To make it more difficult for scientists to exchange and compare results of their measurements.
To allow scientists from other countries to use standard measures and not make up their own
units
To allow for the comparison of measurements with anyone familiar with the measurement
system.
This is irrelevant to standard measures.
Question 2 of 5
What is the official SI base unit for time?
second hour
meters/second
kilograms
Seconds measure time. Question 3 of 5
Which of these has values that are expressed in terms of a
derived unit in the SI system? area mass length time
Time is one specific measurement.
Question 4 of 5
What device is commonly used to measure temperature?
ruler
thermometer
clock scale
Thermometers use the expansion property of a fluid with increasing temperature to measure
temperature.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following pairs of variables has an inverse relationship? the
speed of a hurricane's winds and the amount of damage they cause" how
hard an
Your driving speed and the time required to drive a certain object is
distance the volume of a sample of liquid and the mass of thepushed and
how fast it
moves
This is an inverse relationship because, as your speed increases, the amount of time to reach a
specific point decreases.

Question 3 of 20
Satellites orbiting Earth scan the light reflected from below, and the data can then be analyzed
to get information about the objects that reflected the light. This technology is called “remote
sensing.” For example, they can even distinguish between astroturf in a football field and real
grass on the ground below, even though these look the same to the human eye.
Which field of science would MOST directly devise ways to detect and analyze reflected light
obtained by remote sensing?
life science
chemistry
physics
Earth science
Detecting and analyzing reflected light is dealt with by physics.
Question 4 of 20
Which type of scientific study is BEST suited for collecting data that will be used to analyze
statistical information about the kinds of meanders, or turns, in the path of rivers such as the one
shown in the photograph below?
controlled experiment field study laboratory study
The researchers would have to travel to actual rivers to gather their data.
