Specific Heat: It is necessary to determine the specific heat of an unknown object. The mass of the object is 201.0 g. It is determined experimentally that it takes 15.0 J to raise the temperature 10.0°C. What is the specific heat of the object?
A. 7.46 J/kg ? K
B. 1500 J/kg ? K
C. 0.00130 J/kg ? K
D. 3,020,000 J/kg ? K

If the acceleration vector of an object is directed anti-parallel to the velocity vector, then
A) the object is speeding up. B) the object is slowing down. C) the object is turning. D) the object is at rest. E) this situation would not be physically possible.
Two dogs, Rover and Fido, run on a level frictionless surface. Rover runs eastward with a momentum of 24 kg . m/s, and Fido runs northward with momentum 10 kg . m/s
They make a sudden perfectly inelastic collision. What is the magnitude of their combined momentum after the collision? A) 14 kg . m/s B) 26 kg . m/s C) 34 kg . m/s D) It cannot be determined without knowing the masses and velocities of the dogs.
What evidence supports the theory that there is a black hole at the center of our galaxy?
A) We observe an extremely bright X-ray source at the center of our galaxy. B) We can see gas falling into an accretion disk and central mass at the center of our galaxy. C) The motions of the gas and stars at the center indicate that it contains a million solar masses within a region only about 1 parsec across. D) We observe a large, dark object that absorbs all light at the center of our galaxy. E) all of the above
