Standing Sound Waves: A string that is 0.26 m long is vibrating in its n = 6 harmonic. The sound from this string excites a pipe that is 0.88 m long and open at both ends into its second overtone resonance. What is the common resonant frequency of the string and the pipe? The speed of sound in air is 345 m/s.
A. 590 Hz
B. 390 Hz
C. 490 Hz
D. 690 Hz
E. 760 Hz

High frequency alternating current is passed through a solenoid that contains a solid copper core insulated from the coils of the solenoid. Which statement is correct?
A. A copper core remains cool no matter what the frequency of the current in the solenoid is. B. The copper core remains cool because the induced emf is parallel to the solenoid axis and fluctuates rapidly. C. The copper core heats up because an emf parallel to the solenoid axis is induced in the core. D. The copper core heats up because circular currents around its axis are induced in the core. E. The copper core heats up because the electric field induced in the copper is parallel to the magnetic field produced by the solenoid.
Which of the following best describes why a white dwarf cannot have a mass greater than the 1.4-solar-mass limit?
A) Electron degeneracy pressure depends on the speeds of electrons, which approach the speed of light as a white dwarf's mass approaches the 1.4-solar-mass limit. B) White dwarfs get hotter with increasing mass, and above the 1.4-solar-mass limit they would be so hot that even their electrons would melt. C) White dwarfs are made only from stars that have masses less than the 1.4-solar-mass limit. D) The upper limit to a white dwarf's mass is something we have learned from observations, but no one knows why this limit exists.
