A 0.620-kg wood block is firmly attached to a very light horizontal spring (k = 180 N/m) as shown in Fig. 8-35. This block-spring system, when compressed 5.0 cm and released, stretches out 2.3 cm beyond the equilibrium position before stopping and turning back. What is the coefficient of kinetic fric

Consider a state with a fixed prison capacity of 1,000. When a law is passed establishing a minimum term of 10 years, (twice the current average term), the state cuts the number of prisoners in half, cutting the probability of imprison- ment for crime in half. Use a graph like Figure 133 to illustrat
