the force between two charged particles

The desk has a weight of 75 lb and a center of gravity at g. determine the initial acceleration of a desk when the man applies enough force f to overcome the static friction at a and b. also, find the vertical reactions on each of the two legs at a and at b. the coefficients of static and kinetic friction at a and b are ms = 0.5 and mk = 0.2, respectively

While studying chemical reactions and conservation of matter, sarah's class conducted a variety of experiments. sarah and her lab partner found the mass of a wax candle and placed the candle in a flask. the students lit the candle and let it burn to completion. all that was left was wax and charred candle wick. per their teacher's instructions, the students found the mass of the products. their data can be seen in the data table. formulate a hypothesis the students could test to explain why the experiment did not support the law of conservation of matter. a) the students could repeat the experiment using different candles; there might have been a flaw in the candle. b) the experiment should be repeatable. the students should run several trials and then take an average of the after mass in each trial. c) the students should have someone in the class check their measurement skills as they repeat the experiment. they may have made an error using the balance. d) the students should burn the candle in a container that has some type of lid so that any gas that is a product of the reaction can be contained and massed. submit

Apulley system is used to lift a 2,000 newton engine up a distance of 3 meters. the operator must apply a force of 250 newtons to the chain of the pulley system to lift the motor. to lift the engine 3 meters, the operator must pull a total of 30 meters of chain through the pulley system. what is the value of di?
