Planet Earth
The Atmosphere
Using Natural Resources

The Final is a combination of five parts. There will be multiple choice,
calculations, matching, true/false, diagrams, and 6 essays.

You will need to bring a pencil to the exam for the scantron section and a pen for
the rest of the exam. You will also need to have with you a calculator for the
calculation section.

Talking will not be allowed at any time during the exam.
HOW TO PREPARE

You should reread all the chapters and review your class notes.

Study the chapter review at the end of the chapters and key terms.

PRACTICE PROBLEMS
1. What is the power output of a 2100 N truck that travels 340 m in 560 s?
2. How much stored energy does a 54.5 kg bomb have located 1320 m above a
building before it is dropped?
3. How much energy does a 9250 kg moving vehicle have if it moves with a speed
of 526 m/s?
4. An air mass at 230C can hold 50 grams of water. If only 35 grams of water are
held, what is the relative humidity of the air mass?
5. Ocean waves are hitting a beach at a rate of 4.0 Hz. The distance between wave
crests is 18 m. Calculate the speed of the waves.
6. The speed of sound in air is about 340 m/s. What is the wavelength of a sound
wave with a frequency of 120 Hz?
7. Determine the distance in meters of a star that is 7.5 light years away. The speed
of light is 3.0 x108 m/s. (Hint figure out how many seconds light traveled first.)
