A rectangular block of steel has dimensions of 5 meters x 10 meters x 15 meters and weighs 1000N. How should thus block be placed to exert the least pressure on the surface?
*
A. on the 5 meters by 15 meters side
B. all sides exert equal pressure
C. on the 10 meters by 15 meters side
C. on the 10 meters by 15 meters side
Placing the block on the 10 meters by 15 meters side will exert the least pressure on the surface because this orientation maximizes the area in contact with the surface. Pressure is force divided by area (P = F/A). By maximizing the contact area (10 meters * 15 meters = 150 square meters), the pressure exerted by the weight of the block (1000 Newtons) is spread over a larger surface area, resulting in lower pressure on the surface beneath the block.

“Dura lex sed Lex” (the law is harsh but it is the law) is associated with what ethical framework?
*
A. Virtue ethics
B. Deontology
C. Teleology
D. Natural law
The phrase “Dura lex sed lex” reflects a perspective aligned with the ethical framework of Deontology.
Deontology is an ethical theory that emphasizes the importance of following moral rules and duties, regardless of the consequences. According to this framework, certain actions are inherently right or wrong, regardless of the outcomes they produce. Deontologists believe that moral principles, such as rules and duties, are absolute and should be followed consistently, even if doing so leads to unfavorable consequences.
The phrase “Dura lex sed lex” encapsulates this deontological perspective by asserting that the law, even if harsh or strict, must be obeyed simply because it is the law. It suggests that individuals have a moral obligation to abide by legal rules and regulations, regardless of their personal opinions or the perceived fairness of those laws.
In essence, “Dura lex sed lex” reflects a deontological stance that prioritizes adherence to moral rules and duties, regardless of the outcomes or consequences involved.

The criminal was dared to _________ the source of information.
*
A. bear
B. bore
C. bare
D. bared
C. bare
In this context, “bare” is a verb which means to reveal or uncover something. So, “The criminal was dared to bare the source of information” means that the criminal was challenged to reveal the source of information. The word “to” is part of the infinitive form of the verb, which is the base form of the verb. Therefore, “to bare” is the correct choice.
Here’s why the other options are incorrect:
A. Bear (verb): This is a verb that means to carry or endure. In this context, it doesn’t make sense to say the criminal was dared to carry or endure the source of information.
B. Bore (verb, past tense): This is the past tense of the verb “bear”. Though it indicates that the act happened at some point in the past, its incorrect in this context because the infinitive form of the verb should be used after “to”. It also doesn’t make sense in the sentence, as the meaning of it is “to endure” or “to carry”.
D. Bared (verb, past tense): This is the past tense of the verb “bare”. Again, it’s incorrect in this context because the infinitive form of the verb should be used after “to”.
So, the sentence should read: “The criminal was dared to BARE the source of information.” This means that the criminal was challenged to reveal or uncover the source of information.
The criminal was dared to _________ the source of information.
