Suppose an car engine could be made to burn at a higher temperature, without harming or altering any other part of the engine's operation. At the higher temperature, the engine would
 
  A) have a lower efficiency.
  B) have the same efficiency but be able to operate at a higher power.
  C) have a higher efficiency.
  D) still consume the same amount of gasoline per kilometer traveled.
  E) consume more gasoline per kilometer traveled.

Question 2

A 1.5-kg mass attached to an ideal massless spring with a spring constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a horizontal, frictionless track. At time t = 0.00 s, the mass is released from rest at x = 10.0 cm. (That is, the spring is stretched by 10.0 cm)
 
  (a) Find the frequency of the oscillations.
  (b) Determine the maximum speed of the mass. At what point in the motion does the maximum speed occur?
  (c) What is the maximum acceleration of the mass? At what point in the motion does the maximum acceleration occur?
  (d) Determine the total energy of the oscillating system.
  (e) Express the displacement x as a function of time t.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms. The danger from hypertension is the extra load on the heart, which can lead to hypertensive heart disease and kidney damage. This occurs without any major symptoms until the high blood pressure becomes extreme. Regular blood pressure checks are an important method of catching hypertension before it can kill you.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
