  1. Suppose you and a pair of life preservers are floating down a swift river, as shown. You wish to get to either of the life preservers for safety. One is 3 meters downstream from you and the other is 3 meters upstream from you. Which can you swim to in the shortest time? 1. The preserver upstream. 2. The preserver downstream 3. Both require the same.

  3. Tracks A and B are made from pieces of channel iron of the same length. They are bent identically except for a small dip near the middle of Track B. When the balls are simultaneously released on both tracks as indicated, the ball that races to the end of the track first is on 1. Track A.2. Track B. 3. Both reach the end at the same time.

  5. A motorist wishes to travel 40 kilometers at an average speed of 40 km/h. During the first 20 kilometers, an average speed of 40 km/h is maintained. During the next 10 kilometers, however, the motorist averages only 20 km/h. To drive the last 10 kilometers and average 40 km/h, the motorist must drive 1. 60 km/h. 2. 80 km/h. 3. 90 km/h.4. faster than the speed of light.

  7. An airplane makes a straight back-and-forth round trip, always at the same airspeed, between two cities. If it encounters a mild steady tailwind going, and the same steady headwind returning, will the round trip take: 1. more2. less3. the same time as with no wind?
