Students connect a spring scale to a block on a rough horizontal surface. the students use the spring scale to measure the magnitude of the horizontal force needed to pull the block at a constant speed. which of the following statements explains why two forces exerted between objects ar equal in magnitude?
a. the gravitational and normal forces exerted on the block, because they are a newton's third-law pair.
b. the frictional force and force exerted by the spring scale on the block, because they are a newton's third-law pair.
c. the normal force and the frictional force exerted on the block, because objects always exert forces of equal magnitude on each other.
d. the frictional forces that the block and the surface exert on each other, because objects always exert forces of equal magnitude on each other.

Aparticle of mass m is projected with an initial velocity v0 in a direction making an angle α with the horizontal level ground as shown in the figure. the motion of the particle occurs under a uniform gravitational field g pointing downward. (a) write down the lagrangian of the system by using the cartesian coordinates (x, y). (b) is there any cyclic coordinate(s). if so, interpret it (them) physically. (c) find the euler-lagrange equations. find at least one constant of motion. (d) solve the differential equation in part (c) and obtain x and y coordinates of the projectile as a function of time. (e) construct the hamiltonian of the system, h, and write down the hamilton’s equations (canonical equations) of motion.

Simon is writing a story about an astronaut whose spacecraft has been boarded by space pirates. the astronaut has her lucky penny in her hand behind her back as the space pirates break into the control room. she has just locked the controls so that the ship is accelerating in the direction of the control room’s ceiling. simon wants the astronaut to use the penny to hit a button on the control panel to turn off the lights and escape. the button is located a short distance behind and below the astronaut’s hands. how should simon use the theory of relativity to describe what the astronaut must do in order to hit the button?
