In a photoelectric effect experiment, electrons emerge from a copper surface with a maximum kinetic energy of 1.10 eV when light shines on the surface. The work function of copper is 4.65 eV.
 
  Which one of the following values is closest to the wavelength of the light? (h = 6.626  10-34 J  s, c = 3.00  108 m/s, 1 eV = 1.60  10-19 J)
  A) 360 nm B) 150 nm C) 1100 nm D) 220 nm

Question 2

A reversible engine takes in heat at a rate of 555 W and exhausts heat at 482 W.
 
  (a) How much power does it produce?
  (b) What is its efficiency?
  (c) If operated in reverse as a refrigerator, what would be its performance coefficient (COP)?

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).

Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis syndrome are life-threatening reactions that can result in death. Complications include permanent blindness, dry-eye syndrome, lung damage, photophobia, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, permanent loss of nail beds, scarring of mucous membranes, arthritis, and chronic fatigue syndrome. Many patients' pores scar shut, causing them to retain heat.
