  • 2. 

    Touring skis are for competitive racers.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because touring skis are not specifically designed for competitive racers. Touring skis are designed for backcountry skiing and long-distance journeys, focusing on durability, stability, and ease of use in various snow conditions. Competitive racers typically use specialized racing skis that are lighter, more responsive, and designed for maximum speed and maneuverability on groomed slopes. Therefore, touring skis are not intended for competitive racing.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because it is not specific to women only. Both men and women can use the same method to measure a ski for the correct length. They need to stand on the floor, raise one of their arms straight up, and the ski should come to the middle of the palm of their hand.

    The longbow is easy for beginners.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement "The longbow is easy for beginners" is false. The longbow is actually known to be quite difficult for beginners to use. It requires a great deal of strength and skill to properly handle and shoot a longbow. Beginners often struggle with the technique and strength required to effectively use a longbow, making it more challenging for them to learn and master.

    Fiberglass shafts are used for compound bows.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Fiberglass shafts are used for compound bows because fiberglass is a strong and lightweight material that provides the necessary flexibility and durability for shooting arrows with a compound bow. The fiberglass shafts are able to withstand the high tension and pressure exerted by the bowstring when the arrow is released, ensuring accurate and powerful shots. Additionally, fiberglass is also resistant to weather conditions and does not warp or bend easily, making it an ideal choice for compound bow shafts.

  • 6. 

    The fletching consists of vanes.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The fletching of an arrow typically consists of vanes, which are the small, feather-like structures attached to the back end of the arrow. These vanes help stabilize the arrow during flight by creating drag and causing it to spin. This spinning motion improves accuracy and ensures that the arrow flies straight towards its target. Therefore, it is correct to say that the fletching consists of vanes.

    A. Racing Canoe
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Racing Canoe. The given statement suggests that the canoe is specifically designed for paddlers who are focused on fitness conditioning.

    The type of hull that becomes more stable as it leans to the side.

    • Shallow-V Hull

    • Flared Side

    • Touring Canoe

    Correct Answer
    A. Shallow-V Hull
    Explanation
    A Shallow-V Hull is a type of hull that becomes more stable as it leans to the side. This type of hull has a V-shaped bottom with a shallow angle, which allows it to cut through the water smoothly. As the boat leans to the side, the V-shaped hull provides more surface area on the opposite side, increasing stability and preventing it from tipping over. The shallow angle also helps to displace water more efficiently, reducing the chances of capsizing.

    • Tennis is an excellent aerobic sport providing cardiovascular benefits.

    • Tennis is great to gain weight

    Correct Answer
    A. Tennis is an excellent aerobic sport providing cardiovascular benefits.
    Explanation
    Playing tennis is an excellent aerobic sport that offers various physical benefits, particularly cardiovascular benefits. Engaging in tennis requires constant movement, which helps to increase heart rate and improve overall cardiovascular health. The fast-paced nature of the game also helps to improve endurance, stamina, and lung capacity. Additionally, tennis involves various movements such as running, jumping, and swinging, which can help to improve coordination, agility, and balance. Overall, playing tennis regularly can contribute to weight management, improved cardiovascular fitness, and enhanced physical performance.

    What does the score “love” mean in tennis?

    • Zero.

    • 1-1

    • 2-0

    • 5

    Correct Answer
    A. Zero.
    Explanation
    In tennis, the score "love" represents zero. It is a term used to indicate that a player has not yet scored any points in a game or set. The origin of the term is uncertain, but it is believed to have derived from the French word "l'oeuf," which means "egg." This term emphasizes the idea of starting from nothing or having no points. Therefore, when the score is "love," it means that neither player has scored any points yet.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    What is the first point in a tennis score?

    • 30

    • 1

    • 15

    Correct Answer
    A. 15
    Explanation
    In tennis, the first point in a score is referred to as "15". This is because the scoring system in tennis follows a pattern where the first point is worth 15, the second point is worth 30, the third point is worth 40, and the fourth point results in winning the game. So, "15" is the correct answer as it represents the first point in a tennis score.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    What comprises “a match” in tennis?

    • One side has won no sets

    • One side has won one set

    • One side has won at least two sets.

    Correct Answer
    A. One side has won at least two sets.
    Explanation
    In tennis, a match is comprised of multiple sets. Each set is won by a player or team who reaches a certain number of games first. To win a match, one side must win at least two sets, as winning just one set or no sets would not be enough to secure a victory. Therefore, the correct answer is "One side has won at least two sets."

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    One can get out of prison by hitting the opposing team from behind.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is incorrect. Getting out of prison in a game typically involves being released from a designated area after a set amount of time or by completing a specific task. Hitting the opposing team from behind is not a valid method for getting out of prison in any game.
