A cylindrical capacitor is made of two concentric cylinders. The inner cylinder has radius r1 = 4 mm, and the outer one a radius r2 = 8 mm. The common length of the cylinders is L = 150 m.
 
  What is the potential energy stored in this capacitor when a potential difference V = 4 V is applied between the inner and outer cylinder? A)
 
  9.6  10-8 J
  B)
 
  1.3  10-8 J
  C)
 
  6.3  10-8 J
  D)
 
  0.34  10-8 J
  E)
 
  4.6  10-8 J

Question 2

Consider two cylinders of gas identical in all respects except that one contains O2 and the other He. Both hold the same volume of gas at STP and are closed by a movable piston at one end.
 
  Both gases are now compressed adiabatically to one-third their original volume. Which gas will show the greater temperature increase?
  A)
 
  the O2
  B)
 
  the He
  C)
 
  Neither; both will show the same increase.
  D)
 
  It's impossible to tell from the information given.

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).
