3) How high do you think the earth's atmosphere extends to?
A) 1000 Km
B) about 30 km
C) 1 million meters
D) 500 m
4) What is the orbital period of the moon as it orbits the earth. [Periodic Time
A) 237 x 106 273 day
B) 1 year
C)7 days
D) 365 days
5) How much power is required to lift a 225 kg body 15.0 m in 5.00 s?
A) 3375 N
B) 6.62kW
C) 6620
D) 3.375kj
6) Express each of the following values using scientific notation0.0001042 mi.
A) 1 x 10-4
B) 1.042 x 10-6 mi
C) 1.042 x 10-4 mi

7) What is the force responsible for keeping the nucleus of an atom together?
B) Gravitaional Force

A) zero
B) a small fraction of 1 N
C) 5000 N
D) 20000 N

9) What is the time needed for a car to increase its speed by 20 m/s at a constant acceleration of 2m/s2?
A) 10s
B) 20
C) 40s
D) 400s
E) 0.4s
+8 Many of these problems can be googled to find the answer.
But here is what I am getting for some of these problems.
3) OVER 9000!!! according to google, it extends around 480 km, but that's not one of the answer choices, so eh.
4) Google says 27.3 days
5) power = (Force * Distance) / (Time)
In this case, force = weight = 225, distance = 15, and time = 5
6) C
7) D
8) D (I think... becasue the satelite has to push back with the same force to stay in orbit)
9) One of the basic equations of motion is \(V_f = at + V_I\), where VF = Final velocity, VI = Initial velocity, a = acceleation, and t = time.
Plugging in the values, we get 10 seconds, A.
