If the 3 trials could be run simultaneously on parallel setups, in what order, from first to last, would the carts get to point B?
Correct answer: B. Trial 3, Trial 2, Trial 1
- A. Trial 1, Trial 2, Trial 3
- B. Trial 3, Trial 2, Trial 1
- C. Trial 2, Trial 1, Trial 3
- D. Trial 3, Trial 1, Trial 2
Explanation
The correct order is Trial 3, Trial 2, Trial 1 because when running trials simultaneously on parallel setups, Trial 3 will reach point B first, followed by Trial 2 and then Trial 1. The incorrect options either ignore the concept of simultaneous trials or misplace the order of the trials.

About Scientific Reasoning
Scientific reasoning evaluates hypotheses through observations, variables, controls, measurements and experimental results. Questions involve identifying independent and dependent variables, recognising a fair test, interpreting tables or graphs, distinguishing evidence from opinion, and deciding whether data supports, rejects or leaves a hypothesis unresolved.
