Four identical particles (mass of each = 0.24 kg) are placed at the vertices of a rectangle (2.0 m  3.0 m) and held in those positions by four light rods which form the sides of the rectangle. What is the moment of inertia of this rigid body about an axis that passes through the center of mass of the body and is parallel to the shorter sides of the rectangle?
 a. 2.4 kgm2
  b. 2.2 kgm2
  c. 1.9 kgm2
  d. 2.7 kgm2
  e. 8.6 kgm2

Question 2

Two particles (m1 = 0.20 kg, m2 = 0.30 kg) are positioned at the ends of a 2.0-m long rod of negligible mass. What is the moment of inertia of this rigid body about an axis perpendicular to the rod and through the center of mass?
 a. 0.48 kgm2
  b. 0.50 kgm2
  c. 1.2 kgm2
  d. 0.80 kgm2
  e. 0.70 kgm2

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).
