Glass has a hardness that is in the middle of the hardness scale. what is the hardness of glass?

Agroup of monkeys is trying to cross the river in a rowboat. the maximum buoyant force on the rowboat is 2,000 n. the weight of the rowboat is 1,000 n. each monkey has a weight of 150 n. how many monkeys can safely cross in the rowboat at one time? explain your reasoning, including any calculations you used to find the answer.

A200-n force is applied to the foot-operated air pump. the return spring s exerts a 2.6-n·m moment on member oba for this position. determine the corresponding compression force c in the cylinder bd. if the diameter of the piston in the cylinder is 40 mm, estimate the air pressure generated for these conditions. state any assumptions. enter a positive number for the compression force c.
