A block with mass M is placed on an inclined plane with slope angle q and is connected to a second hanging block with mass m by a cord passing over a small, frictionless pully. The coefficient of static friction μs and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk. For what range values of of m will the blocks remain at rest if they are released from rest.

How will each of the following changes in demand and/or supply affect equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity in a competitive market; that is, do price and quantity increase or decrease, or are the answers indeterminate because they depend on the magnitudes of the shifts?

Why is there friction between objects

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass
