A series circuit contains an 80-F capacitor, a 0.020-H inductor, and a switch. The resistance of the circuit is negligible.
 
  Initially, the switch is open, the capacitor voltage is 50 V, and the current in the inductor is zero. At time t = 0 s, the switch is closed. When the potential across the capacitor is 30 V, what is the rate of change of the current?
  A) 1000 A/s
  B) 1500 A/s
  C) 2000 A/s
  D) 2500 A/s
  E) 3000 A/s

Question 2

If a 2.0-MeV neutron released in a fission reaction loses half its kinetic energy in each moderator collision, how many collisions are needed to reduce its kinetic energy to 1/25 eV?
 
  A) 6
  B) 18
  C) 26
  D) 30
  E) 4

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today. Rare fungal infections, once accurately diagnosed, may require surgical debridement, immunotherapy, and newer antifungals used singly or in combination with older antifungals, on a case-by-case basis.

Immunoglobulin injections may give short-term protection against, or reduce severity of certain diseases. They help people who have an inherited problem making their own antibodies, or those who are having certain types of cancer treatments.

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system destroys its own healthy tissues. When this occurs, white blood cells cannot distinguish between pathogens and normal cells.
