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

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.
