​Marjorie believes that her husband, Tom, is an excellent father because he was born with a gentle nature and an abundance of patience. Tom, on the other hand, believes that he is a good father because he learned to be one from his own parents. Which fundamental question of human development does this issue address?

​Infant mortality rate is defined as the percentage of infants who die

The nurse caring for a patient with severe frostbite observes a purple flush on the hands and feet. What is the most appropriate nursing action?

A 2-day-old infant is noted to have small pustules on her skin. What is the best nursing action?

A 4.0-μF capacitor is connected in series with a 7.0 MΩ resistor, and this combination is connected across an ideal 10-V DC battery. What is the current in the circuit when the capacitor has reached 40% of its maximum charge?

A conducting sphere is charged up such that the potential on its surface is 100 V (relative to infinity). If the sphere’s radius were half as large, but the charge on the sphere were the same, what would be the potential on the surface relative to infinity?

A 2.0-μF capacitor is connected in series with a 9.0 MΩ resistor, and this combination is connected across an ideal 25-V DC battery. What is the current in the circuit when the capacitor has reached 10% of its maximum charge?

Set up the integral for the potential with respect to infinity of a the finite line charge with charge per unit length, λ, at a point a distance, d, above the line charge. See diagram below. You don’t have to perform the integration. Give the integral in terms of x, a, b, d, λ, α or β including the limits of the integration. You will not necessarily use all of the symbols in the answer.      You are expected to finish answering the question during the 90 minutes period so your answer should be uploaded within the initial 90 minutes of when you started Midterm exam 1.  Photograph or otherwise copy the sheet of paper and submit your answer using the quiz assignment Midterm 1 part 2.   The assignment lasts for 15 minutes.   If your computer seems jammed after using honorlock for Midterm 1 reboot your computer and then submit the assignment or use another device such as your phone or tablet.  If you have insurmountable technical difficulties uploading the question email it to Prof Herndon: mherndon@wisc.edu.
