You would have the most quantity of gold if it weighed 1 N on the
 
  1) Moon.
  2) Earth.
  3) planet Jupiter.
  4) would be the same on each.
 
  This is because
  5) on the Moon a greater mass of gold is required for the gravitational force to equal 1 N.
  6) weight and mass are directly proportional to each other.
  7) gravitational force per mass is greatest on the most massive planet.

Question 2

A baseball is thrown straight upward. At the very top of its trajectory its instantaneous velocity is zero and its acceleration is
 
  1) zero.
  2) 10 m/s2.
  3) between zero and 10 m/s2.
  4) none of these.
 
  We can better understand this by noting that when it is at its highest point
  5) there momentarily is no motion.
  6) its rate of change of motion is still 10 m/s2.
  7) although its velocity is not changing, its direction is.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
