Two resistors of values 6.0 and 12.0 W are connected in parallel. This combination in turn is hooked in series with a 4.0-W resistor and a 24-V battery. What is the current in the battery?
 a. 12 A
  c. 2.0 A
  b. 3.0 A
  d. 6.0 A

Question 2

A toy gyroscope (a.k.
 a. a top) consists of a solid disk with a thin rod projecting perpendicular to the center of the disk. The rod, which serves as the rotational axis for the gyroscope, projects on both sides of the disk. The gyroscope is placed with one end of the axis on the surface of the table, and spun so that the rotation of the disk viewed from above is counterclockwise. Alas, the axis of rotation is not quite perpendicular table surface and so the gyroscope precesses. Viewing from above, with the end of the axis in contact with the table staying in the same spot, in what direction does the other end of the axis of the gyroscope precess?
  a. The precession is clockwise.
  b. The precession is counterclockwise.
  c. In the northern hemisphere the precession is clockwise, but in the southern hemisphere it is counterclockwise.
  d. In the northern hemisphere the precession is counterclockwise, but in the southern hemisphere it is clockwise.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
