The resistance of a platinum wire is to be calibrated for low-temperature work. A platinum wire with resistance 2.000 W at 20C is immersed in liquid nitrogen at 77 K (-196C). If the temperature response of the platinum wire is linear, what is the expected resistance of the platinum wire at -196C? aplatinum = 3.92  10-3 (C)-1.
 a. 0.153 W
  c. 3.69 W
  b. 1.768 W
  d. 0.307 W

Question 2

How deep under the surface of a lake would the pressure be triple that at the surface? (1 atm = 1.01  105 Pa)
 a. 1.00 m
  c. 10.3 m
  b. 9.80 m

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
