A 0.150-kg air track cart is attached to an ideal spring with a force constant (spring constant) of 3.58 N/m and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations. What is the period of the oscillations?
 
  A) 2.57 s
  B) 0.527 s
  C) 0.263 s
  D) 1.14 s
  E) 1.29 s

Question 2

The position of an object that is oscillating on an ideal spring is given by x = (17.4 cm) cos(5.46 s-1)t. Write an expression for the acceleration of the particle as a function of time using the cosine function.

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).
