(5 pts) Spheres A, B, and C are initially neutral.  Then +19μC of charge is transferred from sphere A to sphere B, and –6μC of charge is transferred from sphere A to sphere C.  After the transfers, how many excess electrons does sphere A have?  (Numerical answer.)

Three charges are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle.  Given Q = 20 μC, d = 0.40 m.  Find the potential, V, half way between the lower charges (at point P).  (Assume V = 0 at r = ∞).

A proton and an alpha particle at rest 3.0nm apart.  The proton is held in place, while the alpha particle is released from rest.  How fast is the alpha particle moving when it is very far away from the proton?  ( qp = e, mp is given on equation sheet.  qalpha = 2e,  malpha = 4mp..)  (Numerical answer, include units.)

(Optional survey question) What is one topic you’re glad you learned about in nutrition that you’ll take with you into clinical work? What nutrition topic did you find the most boring (needs to be spiced up somehow)?

If you forgot to show your blank pages and equation sheet during the room scan, do it now.  Remember to show your work to the webcam just before you exit this test. For the charge distribution shown.  Given Q = 12 μC, and a = 0.40 m, find the net force on charge q­2 due to the other charges.  (Numerical solution.  Remember vectors have direction.) 

Using the table below, a researcher determines that Florida has a higher death rate than Alaska. What is a problem with this interpretation? Crude and Age-Adjusted Mortality Rates for Alaska and Florida, 2012 State Number of Deaths Crude Death Rate* Age-Adjusted Death Rate* Alaska 3,997 543.7 724.4 Florida 181,112 926.3 663.4 *Deaths per 100,000 population   

CDC’s Colorectal Cancer Control Program uses a multi-level approach to colorectal cancer prevention. Match the most appropriate Social Ecological Model level that the strategy is focusing on.

Your reading discussed nine specific social determinants of health. Select 5 of the 9 determinants. For each determinant that you select provide: 1) definition 2) describe how the determinant impacts health, providing examples as appropriate. Please note: In order to received full credit, your response should reflect the class discussions and readings. (3 pts each = 1 for defining, 2 pts for impact on health/example) Select five of the following determinants: 1) education, 2) employment, 3) health systems and services, 4) housing, 5) income and wealth, 6) physical environment, 7) public safety, 8) social environment, 9) transportation.

One of the costs (and criticisms) of the federal exclusionary rule is that it _____.

​The rule against hearsay and the _____ Clause of the Sixth Amendment deal with similar testimonial issues.
