Two identical blocks fall a distance H. One falls directly down; the other slides down a frictionless incline. Which has the larger speed at the bottom?
 
  1.The one falling vertically
  2.The one sliding down the incline
  3.Both have the same speed
  4.Cannot be determined

Question 2

Two identical blocks are pulled as shown along rough horizontal surfaces with the same coefficient of friction. Both are pulled at constant speed v. Which tension force does more work moving the block a distance D along the surface?
 
  1.T1
  2.T2
  3.Neither; both do zero work
  4.Neither; both do the same amount of negative work
  5.Neither; both do the same amount of positive work
  6.Impossible to determine without knowing the mass m
  7.Impossible to determine without knowing the speed v
  8.Impossible to determine without knowing the angle of T2
  9.Impossible to determine for 2 of the reasons above
  10.Impossible to determine for some other reason

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
