The calculated value of static friction A) increases as force increases
B) is the amount of friction present for an object at rest
C) causes a net acceleration
D) is the maximum value possible

Aspring has a relaxed length of 33 cm (0.33 m) and its spring stiffness is 6 n/m. you glue a 76 gram block (0.076 kg) to the top of the spring, and push the block down, compressing the spring so its total length is 15 cm. you make sure the block is at rest, then at time t=0 you quickly move your hand away. the block begins to move upward, because the upward force on the block by the spring is greater than the downward force on the block by the earth. calculate y vs. time for the block during a 0.09-second interval after you release the block, by applying the momentum principle in three steps each of 0.03-second duration.

In the absence of friction, gravity, and all other external forces, what kind of speed will an object display if it travels from the bottom to the top of an inclined plane? a. constant speed b. increasing speed c. decreasing speed d. speed increases and then decreases e. speed decreases and then increases

Curves in canyons formed by a downcutting stream are: downcut meanders, furrowed meanders , entrenched meanders, or embedded meanders
