Those cracks across which there seems to be the relative motion of a block passed one another says the definition of faults. Faulting refers to the complete process of fracture formation and block migration against one another.

A physicist performs a series of experiments to determine the relative magnitude of electric charge on four particles. A given particle is considered to have a higher magnitude of charge than another if it will push out (or draw in) a positive test charge farther than the other particle.A particle that pushes the test charge has positive charge, while a particle that pulls (or draws in) the test charge has negative charge. This is known as the sign of the charge. Magnitude of charge is unrelated to sign.The experiment is conducted on a horizontal axis that measures from 20m in total: from –10m on the left to +10m on the right, with a measurement of 0m in the middle.Experiment 1Particle A is placed at position –5m on the horizontal axis. The test charge has a specific magnitude of charge and is located at +3m on that same axis. The result of the experiment is that the test charge is displaced to +7.5m.Experiment 2Particle B is placed at position –8m on the horizontal axis. The test charge has the same magnitude of charge as the previous experiment and is located at 0m on that same axis. The result of the experiment is that the test charge is displaced to –7.5m.Experiment 3Particle C is placed at position 0m on the horizontal axis. The test charge has the same magnitude of charge as the previous experiment and is located at +8m on that same axis. The result of the experiment is that the test charge is displaced to +10m.Experiment 4Particle D is placed at position –5.5m on the horizontal axis. The test charge has the same magnitude of charge as the previous experiment and is located at +2.5m on that same axis. The result of the experiment is that the test charge is displaced to +7.5m.Q.If particle C and particle D are placed on the axis at the same time, accoring to the results of the experiment, what is likely to occur?

Directions: Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question.PassageCertain species of ﬂowers attract more bees than others with the scent of their pollen. The pollen is found on a structure within the ﬂower called the anther, which is located on top of another structure called the stamen. Flowers typically have multiple anthers and stamens.Bees carry the pollen from the ﬂowers on their legs. The bees move from ﬂower to ﬂower while collecting pollen.Some of the pollen falls from their legs as they land on another ﬂower. This depositing of pollen causes crosspollination to occur (fertilization of the other ﬂowers). Three studies were conducted to study this process.Study 1For two ﬂower species (A and B), pollen quantity per anther in milligrams (mg), anther quantity per ﬂower in number, and percentage of stamens covered with pollen were recorded (see Table 1).Study 2Three study sites were established to determine the pollen collection rate of one species of bee for the ﬂowers used in Study 1. In Site 1, Species A ﬂowers were absent. In Site 2, Species B ﬂowers were absent. In Site 3, both Species A and B ﬂowers were absent.Two pollen containers were placed at each site: one containing 50 mg Species A pollen and one containing 50 mg Species B pollen. The containers were left in place for 36 hours and the amount of pollen that was taken from the containers was measured. The results are recorded in Table 2.Study 3The researchers hand-pollinated ﬂowers from a third species, Species C. They also observed the Species C plants being cross-pollinated by the bees in the area. All ﬂowers were observed for 2 years. The scientists recorded the results in Table 3.Q.The results of Study 2 suggest that which of the following factors most affects the ﬂower preference of bees?
