*Diagram with a container containing 3 differently shaped tubes* *2.21.* Oil is very slowly poured into the container shown in the figure until the fluid enters the three open tube X, Y, and Z. The oil does not overflow any of the tubes. Which of the following correctly ranks the height of the oil in each of the three tubes?

X = Y = Z

*Diagram with a light beam passing through a prism and exiting at 3 different spots* *2.16.* Your lab group has been asked to determine the index of refraction of a plastic rectangular prism. Your partner places the prism on a sheet of paper, traces its shape, shines a beam of light through the prism, and traces the incoming ray. The light exits the prism at multiple locations. Your partner marks the exit locations of the three brightest rays on the side of the prism as shown in the figure. Is this enough information to determine the index of refraction of the prism and why?

Yes, by measuring ray angles with a protractor and using the concepts of refraction

*Diagram with a sphere charged +Q and a sphere charged -Q separated by distance d; a sphere charged +q approaches the midpoint of the other 2 spheres from the right* *2.4.* Two spheres with charges +Q and -Q of equal magnitude are placed a vertical distance d apart on the y-axis as shown in the figure. A third charge +q is brought from a distance x, where x>>d, horizontally toward the midpoint between +Q and -Q. The net force on +q as it is moved to the left along the x-axis:

increases and remains in the same direction

*Diagram with Particle P moving upward into a magnetic field that is between 2 plates and directed into the page* *2.12.* A magnetic field directed into the page in the -z direction is placed between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown in the figure. The magnetic and electric fields are adjusted so that a particle of charge +1 e moving at a velocity of v will pass straight through the fields in the +y direction. Which of the following changes will cause the particle to deflect to the left as it passes through the fields?

increasing the velocity v of the particle

*Scatterplot with Current (A) on the Y-axis & Voltage (V) on the X-axis* *2.7.* A kitchen toaster is connected to a variable power supply. The voltage difference across and current through the toaster are measured for various settings of the power supply. The figure shows the graph of the data. The resistance of the toaster:

is constant at 5.0 (ohms)

*12 6 C + 1 1 H --> 13 7 N + ÿ* *2.44.* Which of the following expressions correctly relates the masses of the constituent particles involved in the nuclear reaction shown?

m sub C + m sub H - m sub N - (hf/c^2) = 0

*2.32.* Under which of the following conditions would it be appropriate to neglect the gravitational force on a a charge in a magnetic field?

mg<<qvB

*Diagram with... too much happening* *2.31.* Which of the following shown in the figure will cause current flow in the wire loop?

moving a magnet from above a loop of wire to the right as indicated with arrow B

*Graph with 1/d sub o the Y-axis & 1/d sub i on the X-axis* *2.35.* You were absent when your AP Physics 2 class performed a lens lab. When you return to school, the teacher says to get the data from a friend and complete the assignment of calculating the focal length of the lens used in the lab. Your friend hands you the graph shown in the figure where d sub o and d sub i are the object and image distances. Which of the following is equal to the focal length of the lens?

the inverse of the y-intercept of the best-fit line

*Diagram with a bar magnet (north pointed up) under particle +Q* *2.34.* A charge +Q is positioned close to a bar magnet as shown in the figure. If the charge is experiencing a force into the page, which way must the charge be moving?

to the left
