Jason takes off across level water on his jet-powered skis. The combined mass of Jason and skis is 75 kg (the mass of the fuel is negligible). The skis have a thrust of 200 N and a coefficient of kinetic friction on water of 0.1.
 
  Unfortunately, the skis run out of fuel after only 90 s. What is Jason's top speed? A) 150 m/s
  B) 240 m/s
  C) 24 m/s
  D) 90 m/s

Question 2

Two identical loudspeakers that are 5.00 m apart and face toward each other are driven in phase by the same oscillator at a frequency of 875 Hz. The speed of sound in the room is 344 m/s.
 
  If you start out standing midway between the speakers, find the shortest distance you can walk toward either speaker in order to hear a minimum of sound.
  A) 0.197 m B) 0.295 m C) 0.0983 m D) 0.393 m E) 0.590 m

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.
