a tall tower of circular cross section is reinforced by horizontal circular disks (like large coins), one meter apart and of negligible thickness. the radius of the disk at height n is 1/(ninn) (n2 4 -3 assuming that the tower is of infinite height (a) wil the total area of the disks be finite or not? hint: can you compare the (b) (c) explain why there is not a contradiction between your answers in (a) and (b) series with a simpler one? if the disks are strengthened by wires going around their circumferences like tires, wi the total length of wire required be finite or not? that is, how is it possible to start with a set of disks of finite area, remove a little strip around the circumference of each, and get an infinite total length of these strips? hint: think about units you can't compare area and length. consider two cases: (1) make the width of each strip equal to one percent of the radius of the disk from which you cut it. now the total length is infinite but what about the total area? (2) try to make the strips all the same width

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 710 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of θ = 23° with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.19. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. a) what is the block's initial mechanical energy? b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
