Words like “better” and “faster” that only make sense when compared to something else are examples of:

Which of the following is NOT one of the three basic purposes of communication listed in your text?

Communication that occurs within yourself is:

A client with schizophrenia is participating in a medication teaching session. The nurse notes: Client reports auditory hallucinations “whisper occasionally”.  Client maintains intermittent eye contact intermittently, answers questions with brief responses and demonstrates mild psychomotor retardation. Client reports “medication makes me feel foggy”. Which teaching strategy would be most effective?

A nurse assesses a client with worsening depression. Which findings represent social determinants of mental health that should be prioritized? (Select all that apply)

A nurse is caring for a client with bipolar disorder who became physically aggressive during an acute manic episode, requiring 4-point restraints per provider order. The client has now been in restraints for 45 minutes. Based on evidence-based practice standards for restraint management, which nursing action demonstrates appropriate clinical judgment for this situation?

 Which of these is a derived quantity?  

(a).       State Newton’s first law of motions                                                                                                 (2.0 points)   (b).         An airplane during landing touches down at 40 m/s and taxis to stop in 13 s along a straight level runway. (i).          What is its acceleration?                                                                                                                     (1.5 points) (ii).         How fast and how far is the plane after 3.0 s?                                                                                 (3.0 points) (iii).       How far does the plane travel before coming to a stop?                                                                    (1.5 points)    

    Adams throws a 2.5 kg object straight up with a speed of 15.0 m/s (assume planet Earth). (a).         What is the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the object at its maximum height?     (1.0 point)                                                         (b).         How long does it take to get to maximum height?                                                                          (1.5 points) (c).         What is the maximum height attained by the object?                                                                        (1.5 point)

                     Extra Credit  An astronaut on a certain planet releases a 15 kg object from a height of 25 m above the surface and measures the time it takes for the object to hit the ground to be 1.97s. (i).  Calculate the acceleration due to gravity on this unknown planet.             (1.5 points)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     (ii). At what speed does the object hit the surface of the planet?                                                                          (1.5 points)   (iii). What is the mass of the object just before it hits the floor of the planet?                                                        (1.0 point)
