Two identical springs with spring constant 50 N/m support a 5.0-N weight as in the picture below. What is the tension in spring A?
 
 
 
   
  a.
  1.45 N
   
  b.
  2.50 N
   
  c.
  2.89 N
   
  d.
  3.75 N
   
  e.
  5.00 N

Question 2

In the figure, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the surface and the larger block is 0.20, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the surface and the smaller block is 0.30. If F = 10 N and M = 1.0 kg, what is the tension in the connecting string?
 
   


   
  a.
  8.0 N
   
  b.
  6.0 N
   
  c.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
