Practice Exam 2

This document contains a practice exam covering concepts from chapters 4-7 including equations for pressure, density, displacement, temperature conversions, thermal expansion, and wave speed. It asks 5 multiple choice questions testing understanding of buoyancy, Bernoulli's principle, the ideal gas law, thermal expansion, and wave speed calculations. It also includes a word problem asking the student to calculate the weight, buoyant force, and net force on a submerged rectangular piece of wood.
