Earth is closer to the Sun in winter than in summer. The orbital speed of Earth about the Sun is therefore faster during the
 
  1) summer.
  2) winter.
  3) is the same for all seasons.
 
  Correspondingly, the gravitational force between the Sun and Earth is strongest during
  4) summer.
  5) winter.
  6) is the same for all seasons.

Question 2

A projectile is launched vertically upward at 40 m/s. If air resistance is negligible, its speed upon returning to its starting point is
 
  1) less than 40 m/s.
  2) 40 m/s.
  3) more than 40 m/s.
 
  All along the ball's trajectory, its acceleration is
  4) g downward.
  5) g at an angle.
  6) zero.
 
  If air resistance does affect motion, then the ball's speed upon returning to its starting point is
  7) less than 50 m/s.
  8) 50 m/s.
  9) more than 50 m/s.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
