Read your test questions carefully.  Many questions will give examples to show you how to write your answer.  When your answer has a fraction, use the / to separate the numerator and denominator.  If your answer has a whole number and a fraction, place a space between the whole number and fraction. Examples:  Three fourths is written as 3/4.                    Five and one half is written as 5 1/2   (not 51/2)   Using the Mental Math Technique—Taking Parts from Wholes, solve the following problem:     9 − 2/9.

Suppose a train sounding its horn is moving at 30.0 m/s in still air on a day when the speed of sound is 350.0 m/s. As the train passes the platform, on which you stand (moving away from you), you hear it with a frequency of 180 Hz. Which frequency does an observer on the train hear?

A mass m = 7.0 kg is attached to a spring and allowed to hang in the Earth’s gravitational field. The spring stretches 4.4 cm before it reaches its equilibrium position (where the spring force balances gravity). If allowed to oscillate, what would be its period?

A soccer player kicks a 0.500kg ball from rest towards the opposing team’s net. The ball has a velocity of 25.0 m/s the instant after being kicked, and the player’s foot is in contact with the ball for 0.300 s. What is the average force exerted on the ball?
