question: Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?

choice: (A) The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs. (B) The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1. (C) The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2.

context: The images below show two pairs of magnets. The magnets in different pairs do not affect each other. All the magnets shown are made of the same material.

gold answer: B

wrong prediction:

Rationale:

0: Magnets can pull or push on each other without touching.
1: When magnets attract, they pull together.
2: When magnets repel, they push apart.
3: These pulls and pushes between magnets are called magnetic forces.
4: The strength of a force is called its magnitude.
5: The greater the magnitude of the magnetic force between two magnets, the more strongly the magnets attract or repel each other.
6: You can change the magnitude of a magnetic force between two magnets by changing the distance between them.
7: The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller when there is a greater distance between the magnets.
8: The magnets in Pair 2 attract.
9: The magnets in Pair 1 repel.
10: But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force.
11: It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force.
12: Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force.
13: When there is a greater distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is smaller.
14: There is a greater distance between the magnets in Pair 2 than in Pair 1.
15: So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2 than in Pair 1.
16: The answer is C.

12: In the winter, Ben usually wears his heavy coat.
13: Ben usually wears his heavy coat in the winter.
14: A compound sentence is made up of two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction such as and, but, or, or so.
15: We saw a flash of lightning, and seconds later we heard the rumble of thunder.
16: A complex sentence is made up of an independent clause and a dependent clause.
17: The dependent clause usually begins with a subordinating conjunction such as after, although, as, because, before, if, since, unless, until, when, or while.

question: Which air temperature was measured within the outlined area shown?

choice: (A) -2°C (B) 17°C (C) 2°C

context: The map below shows air temperatures in the lower atmosphere on June 12, 2013. The outlined area shows an air mass that influenced weather in South America on that day. Look at the map. Then, answer the question below. Data source: United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration/Earth System Research Laboratory, Physical Sciences Division

gold answer: C

wrong prediction:

Rationale:

0: To study air masses, scientists can use maps that show conditions within Earth's atmosphere.
1: For example, the map below uses color to show air temperatures.
2: The map's legend tells you the temperature that each color represents.
3: Colors on the left in the legend represent lower temperatures than colors on the right.
4: For example, areas on the map that are the darkest shade of blue have a temperature from -25°C up to -20°C.
5: Areas that are the next darkest shade of blue have a temperature from -20°C up to -15°C.
6: Look at the colors shown within the outlined area.
7: Then, use the legend to determine which air temperatures those colors represent.
8: The legend tells you that this air mass contained air with temperatures between 0°C and 10°C.
9: 17°C is within this range.
10: -2°C and 2°C are outside of this range.

question: Will these magnets attract or repel each other?

choice: (A) attract (B) repel

context: Two magnets are placed as shown.

gold answer: B

wrong prediction:

Rationale:

0: Magnets can pull or push on other magnets without touching them.
1: When magnets attract, they pull together.
2: When magnets repel, they push apart.
3: These pulls and pushes are called magnetic forces.
4: Magnetic forces are strongest at the magnets' poles, or ends.
5: Every magnet has two poles: a north pole (N) and a south pole (S).
6: Here are some examples of magnets.
7: Their poles are shown in different colors and labeled.
8: Whether a magnet attracts or repels other magnets depends on the positions of its poles.
9: If opposite poles are closest to each other, the magnets attract.
10: The magnets in the pair below attract.
11: If the same, or like, poles are closest to each other, the magnets repel.
12: The magnets in both pairs below repel.
13: To predict if these magnets will attract or repel, look at which poles are closest to each other.
14: The north pole of one magnet is closest to the south pole of the other magnet.
15: Opposite poles attract.
16: So, these magnets will attract each other.
17: The answer is A.
