9.58 A spring of equilibrium length L1 and spring constant k1 hangs from the ceiling. Mass m1 is suspended from its lower end. Then a second spring with equilibrium length L2 and spring constant k2 is hung from the bottom of m1. Mass m2 is suspended from this second spring. How far is m2 below the ceiling

The uniform slender bar rests on a smooth horizon- tal surface when a force f is applied normal to the bar at point a. point a is observed to have an initial acceleration aa of 20 m/s2, and the bar has a corre- sponding angular acceleration of 18 rad /s2. deter- mine the distance b.

An charge with mass m and charge q is emitted from the origin, (x,y)=(0,0). a large, flat screen is located at x=l. there is a target on the screen at y position y(h), where y(h) > 0. in this problem, you will examine two different ways that the charge might hit the target. ignore gravity in this problem. 1.assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive x direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive y direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l. 2.now assume that the charge is emitted with velocity v(0) in the positive y direction. between the origin and the screen, the charge travels through a constant electric field pointing in the positive x direction. what should the magnitude e of the electric field be if the charge is to hit the target on the screen? express your answer in terms of m, q, y(h), v(0), and l.

Aprisoner is forced to go into one of three rooms, but he can choose which room. the first room is ablaze with fire. the second one is rigged with explosives that will go off as soon as he enters. the third contains a pair of lions who haven't eaten in years. which room should he choose to survive?
