A jar of quarters sits on a table with zero velocity. There are two forces acting on the jar. What is this situation called? A. Dynamic equilibrium
B. Inertia equilibrium
C. Force equilibrium
D. Static equilibrium

Solar cell a produces 100 joules of energy, when a light source is shown on it for 3 minutes. solar cell b produces 200 joules of energy when the same light source is shown on it for 5 minutes. which solar cell works better? a) solar cell b, because it produces more energy. b) solar cell b, because it generates more power. c) solar cell a, because it produces energy quicker. d) solar cell a, because it generates a greater wattage. eliminate

Part f - example: finding two forces (part i) two dimensional dynamics often involves solving for two unknown quantities in two separate equations describing the total force. the block in (figure 1) has a mass m=10kg and is being pulled by a force f on a table with coefficient of static friction îľs=0.3. four forces act on it: the applied force f (directed î¸=30â above the horizontal). the force of gravity fg=mg (directly down, where g=9.8m/s2). the normal force n (directly up). the force of static friction fs (directly left, opposing any potential motion). if we want to find the size of the force necessary to just barely overcome static friction (in which case fs=îľsn), we use the condition that the sum of the forces in both directions must be 0. using some basic trigonometry, we can write this condition out for the forces in both the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, as: fcosî¸â’îľsn=0 fsinî¸+nâ’mg=0 in order to find the magnitude of force f, we have to solve a system of two equations with both f and the normal force n unknown. use the methods we have learned to find an expression for f in terms of m, g, î¸, and îľs (no n).

30 points - when can a theory be modified if a new type of technology allows for new observations that raise new questions? a. immediately, while the questions about the theory are being asked b. after new hypotheses related to the theory are tested in experiments c. only after the new observations disprove all parts of the theory d. while scientists begin to think about how the theory could improve
