Two thin-walled concentric conducting spheres of radii 5.0 cm and 10 cm have a potential difference of 100 V between them.
 
  (k = 1/40 = 8.99  109 N  m2/C2)
  (a) What is the capacitance of this combination?
  (b) What is the charge carried by each sphere?

Question 2

Blocks A and B of masses 10 kg and 7 kg, respectively, are connected by a rope, which passes over a light frictionless pulley, as shown. The horizontal surface is rough. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.40 and 0.20, respectively.
 
  External forces P and Q act on block B, as shown. In Figure 5.20, force P equals 28 N. The maximum value of force Q, for which the system remains at rest is closest to: A) 140 N
  B) 120 N
  C) 98 N
  D) 110 N
  E) 130 N

Looking at the sun may not only cause headache and distort your vision temporarily, but it can also cause permanent eye damage. Any exposure to sunlight adds to the cumulative effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on your eyes. UV exposure has been linked to eye disorders such as macular degeneration, solar retinitis, and corneal dystrophies.

For high blood pressure (hypertension), a new class of drug, called a vasopeptidase blocker (inhibitor), has been developed. It decreases blood pressure by simultaneously dilating the peripheral arteries and increasing the body's loss of salt.

Chronic marijuana use can damage the white blood cells and reduce the immune system's ability to respond to disease by as much as 40%. Without a strong immune system, the body is vulnerable to all kinds of degenerative and infectious diseases.

Though methadone is often used to treat dependency on other opioids, the drug itself can be abused. Crushing or snorting methadone can achieve the opiate "rush" desired by addicts. Improper use such as these can lead to a dangerous dependency on methadone. This drug now accounts for nearly one-third of opioid-related deaths.

There used to be a metric calendar, as well as metric clocks. The metric calendar, or "French Republican Calendar" divided the year into 12 months, but each month was divided into three 10-day weeks. Each day had 10 decimal hours. Each hour had 100 decimal minutes. Due to lack of popularity, the metric clocks and calendars were ended in 1795, three years after they had been first marketed.
