A 12-kg mass is placed on a 25.0 incline, and friction keeps it from sliding. The coefficient of static friction in this case is 0.580, and the coefficient of sliding friction is 0.520 . What is the frictional force in this situation?
 a. 55.4 N
  c. 49.7 N
  b. 107 N
  d. 61.2 N

Question 2

Two objects, A and B, are placed on an inclined plane that can be rotated to different angles of elevation. A starts to slide at twice the angle of elevation that B starts sliding. The respective coefficients for static friction for A and B are mA and mB. Choose the last answer that is correct.
 a. mB > mA
  c. mB = 2 mA
  b. mA > mB
  d. mA = 2 mB

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).
