1. Two objects are attached to a string which is strung over a pulley, as seen in the image to the right. The coefficient of static friction is
given as 0.21. If the object on the table is pushed to the left, solve
for the minimum and maximum applied forces that will still
maintain static equilibrium.

How is the ideal mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle calculated?

Which of the following conditions lead you to see an absorption line spectrum from a cloud of gas in interstellar space? the cloud is extremely hot. the cloud is visible primarily because it reflects light from nearby stars. the cloud is cool and lies between you and a hot star. the cloud is cool and very dense, so that you cannot see any objects that lie behind it.

Amajor impediment to wide acceptance of electric vehicles even on the part of people who use their cars almost exclusively for commuting is the inability to use their electric vehicles for occasional extended trips. in an attempt to make purchasing electric vehicles more attractive to commuters, one electric vehicle producer is planning to offer customers three days free rental of a conventional car for every 1,000 miles that they drive their electric vehicle. which of the following, if true, most threatens the plan's prospects for success? (a) many electric vehicles that are used for commercial purposes are not needed for extended trips. (b) because a majority of commuters drive at least 100 miles a week, the cost to the producer of making good the offer would add considerably to the already high price of electric vehicles. (c) the relatively long time it takes to recharge the battery of an electric vehicle can easily be fitted into the regular patterns of car use characteristic of commuters. (d) although electric vehicles are essentially emission-free in actual use, generating the electricity necessary for charging an electric vehicle's battery can burden the environment. (e) some family vehicles are used primarily not for commuting but for making short local trips, such as to do errands.
