      [quote=\"Puzz...zzle\"]HI Need Help !

      1. Which of the following device does not contain a magnet?
      1. Ez-link card
      2. Compas
      3. Refrigerator
      4. Battery
      Not sure answer is 1 or 4??

      one of the uses of a magnet is to store information, so i would think that EZ-link card contain magnet.

      Actually the prev floppy ezlink was magnetic but not the current generation of ezlink card which uses a smart chip system.[/quote]
      Interesting...

      We just follow the assessment books for answers!!??

      Not sure whether they mention anything about this in the TEXTBOOK. Honestly I don't use/even flip thro' the textbook.

        For magnetic qn, i remember having to decide if a telephone has magnet. Think the old styled phone had magnet in their ringer/bell n also the spkr n mic.

        But I think modern phone is electronic n even the spkr n mic is piezo type system.

        So how do we know what kind of phone they talking abt?
        my dd told me 1 student in her class ask a question like this too.. (was it your idea, nebbermind)

        he ask the teacher is it true that some phones have no magnets and some cooking pots are fully made of metal and yet the handles will not feel too hot while cooking. the teacher said, \"in pri sci, we learn the basic fundamentals of the natural materials. however, science is always advancing itself and we have to keep up with the technology, except that when these new technology goes into the syllabus, it confuses the children....\" i rmb this very well as i find it very well said...

                    my answer is B.
                    Roots only absorb mineral salt and water from the soil. hence A is out. C and D cannot happen as the food carrying tubes was removed.
