Asmall block of mass m lies on the upper, inclined surface of a larger wedge of mass m, which in turn rests on a horizontal surface near the surface at sea level. the upper surface of the wedge is inclined at an angle φ to the horizontal, and the maximium coefficient of static friction between this surface and the upper block is μ. (a) w φ such that the upper block can remain motionless on the incline when the wedge is fixed in position? hat is the maximum value of (b) suppose instead that the wedge is accelerated in the horizontal direction. what is the minimal and maximal acceleration for the wedge, for which the block will remain on the wedge without slipping, if φ is less than the critical value determined in part (a)? (c) what is the minimal and maximal acceleration of the wedge, for which the block will remain on the wedge without slipping, if φ exceeds the critical value determined in part(a), (but is still acute ?

The ultracentrifuge is an important tool for separating and analyzing proteins. because of the enormous centripetal accelerations, the centrifuge must be carefully balanced, with each sample matched by a sample of identical mass on the opposite side. any difference in the masses of opposing samples creates a net force on the shaft of the rotor, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the apparatus. suppose a scientist makes a slight error in sample preparation and one sample has a mass 10 mg larger than the opposing sample. if the samples are 12 cm from the axis of the rotor and the ultracentrifuge spins at 70,000 rpm, what is the magnitude of the net force on the rotor due to the unbalanced samples? ( be thorough on your answer)

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)
