Question 2

Traveling waves are created on a rope that has a mass per length 0.200 kg/m that is stretched with a tension of 400 N.
 
  If the end of the rope is moved up and down with simple harmonic motion with amplitude 30.0 cm and a period 1.40 s, how much work is done in one period of the motion?
  A)
 
  133 J
  B)
 
  400 J
  C)
 
  267 J
  D)
 
  11.3 J
  E)
 
  No work is done because the tension pulls outward along the rope, but the end of the rope moves perpendicular to the rope.

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).
