Significant figures are digits read directly from measuring instrument plus one more digit, which is by the observer

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 710 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of θ = 23° with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.19. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. a) what is the block's initial mechanical energy? b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.

Using a pedometer, you walk 3000 steps in 20 minutes, so your speed is 150 steps/min. each of your steps is 0.7 m long. what is your speed? 150 steps/min=/s=/h

Two forces produce equal torques on a door about the door hinge. the first force is applied at the midpoint of the door; the second force is applied at the doorknob. both forces are applied perpendicular to the door. which force has a greater magnitude?
