Temperature is a measure of internal energy of an object and is frequently expressed by physicists in units of Kelvin.
- (a)found
- (b)told
- (c)distributed
- (d)concealed
Answer
D
Why
Correct — D, concealed. Here 'expressed' means made known or stated openly, so its opposite is 'concealed', which means hidden or kept from view.
Why the others are wrong
- (a)found — 'Found' means discovered or located; it does not capture the 'make known' sense of 'expressed', so it is not the opposite.
- (b)told — 'Told' means communicated or stated — close to the sense of 'expressed', not its antonym.
- (c)distributed — 'Distributed' means shared out or spread around; it concerns dispersal, not disclosure, so it is unrelated.
Concept
An antonym item — in Kelvin the temperature is 'expressed' (stated or made known), and the opposite of that is 'concealed' (hidden).
