The human skin is not capable of directly detecting light. The skin contains specialized receptors called photoreceptors that are responsible for detecting light and sending signals to the brain. These photoreceptors are located in the eyes, specifically in the retina. When light enters the eyes, it is detected by the photoreceptors, which then send signals to the brain to process visual information. Therefore, light is not directly detected by the human skin.

Science - Logs are floated on rivers to timber factories because
Correct Answer
C. Heavy logs are less dense than the river water
Explanation
Heavy logs are less dense than the river water, which is why they float on the surface of the river. This allows them to be easily transported to timber factories by floating them downstream. If the logs were denser than the river water, they would sink and it would be much more difficult to transport them. Therefore, the fact that heavy logs are less dense than the river water makes it feasible to float them on rivers to timber factories.

Science - Why it is advisable to let the fallen leaves lie on the forest floor?
Correct Answer
C. Decomposers are able to break them down which can be used by the plants.
Explanation
Leaving fallen leaves on the forest floor is advisable because decomposers are able to break them down, which in turn can be used by the plants. Decomposers like fungi and bacteria help in the process of decomposition, breaking down the leaves into organic matter. This organic matter then enriches the soil, providing essential nutrients for plant growth. Therefore, by allowing the fallen leaves to remain on the forest floor, the ecosystem can efficiently recycle nutrients and maintain a healthy balance.

Maths - A fish swims at 2.46 km/h. How far has the fish travelled after 2050s?
Correct Answer
C. 1.4 km
Explanation
The fish swims at a speed of 2.46 km/h. To find the distance traveled after 2050s, we need to multiply the speed by the time. Since the time is given in seconds, we need to convert it to hours by dividing it by 3600 (60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour). Therefore, 2050s is equal to 2050/3600 hours. Multiplying the speed of 2.46 km/h by the time of 2050/3600 hours gives us a distance of approximately 1.4 km.

Maths - A clock shows the time as 12.20. What is the angle the hour hand makes with the minutes hand?
Correct Answer
C. 120
Explanation
The angle between the hour hand and the minute hand on a clock can be calculated by using the formula: (30h - 11/2m), where h is the hour and m is the minutes. In this case, the hour is 12 and the minutes is 20. Substituting these values into the formula, we get (30(12) - 11/2(20)) = 360 - 110 = 250 degrees. However, since the question asks for the angle between the hour and minute hand, we subtract this value from 360 to get 360 - 250 = 110 degrees. Therefore, the correct answer is 120 degrees.

Maths - Clive and Ricky share 80 plums in the ratio 3 : 5. Ricky gets the bigger share. What percentage of plums does Ricky get?
Correct Answer
B. 62.5
Explanation
Clive and Ricky share the plums in the ratio 3:5. This means that for every 3 plums Clive gets, Ricky gets 5 plums. To find out what percentage of plums Ricky gets, we need to calculate the fraction of plums he receives out of the total. The total number of plums is 3 + 5 = 8. Ricky gets 5 out of 8 plums. To convert this fraction to a percentage, we divide 5 by 8 and multiply by 100. This gives us 62.5, which represents the percentage of plums Ricky gets.

Explanation
The proper way of doing a warming up session is to start with a slow jog, followed by stretching. This sequence allows the muscles to gradually warm up and increase blood flow, reducing the risk of injury. Starting with a slow jog helps to raise the heart rate and body temperature, preparing the muscles for more intense exercise. Stretching after the jog helps to improve flexibility and range of motion, preventing muscle strains or tears. This order ensures that the body is adequately prepared for the workout ahead.

Cooling down after exercise helps prevent the accumulation of lactic acid in the muscles. Lactic acid is produced during intense exercise and can cause muscle soreness and fatigue. By gradually reducing the intensity of exercise and allowing the body to gradually return to its resting state, the lactic acid is more effectively removed from the muscles. This helps to prevent muscle soreness and allows for faster recovery.
