Suppose that the Department of Energy develops a new reversible engine that has a coefficient of performance (COP) of 4.0
 
  when operated as a refrigerator and a COP of 5.0 when operated as a heat pump. What is its thermal efficiency when operated as a heat engine doing work?
  A) 20 B) 10 C) 45 D) 80 E) 25

Question 2

For a certain metal, light of frequency 7.24  10-14 Hz is just barely able to dislodge photoelectrons from the metal. (h = 6.626  10-34 J  s, 1 eV = 1.60  10-19 J, e = 1.60  10-19 C)
 
  (a) What will be the stopping potential if light of frequency 8.75  10-14 Hz is shone on the metal?
  (b) What is the work function (in electron-volts) of this metal?

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.

Many people have small pouches in their colons that bulge outward through weak spots. Each pouch is called a diverticulum. About 10% of Americans older than age 40 years have diverticulosis, which, when the pouches become infected or inflamed, is called diverticulitis. The main cause of diverticular disease is a low-fiber diet.
