A hungry bear weighing 700 N walks out on a beam in an attempt to retrieve a basket of goodies hanging at the end of the beam (Fig. P8.22). The beam is uniform, weighs 200 N, and is 6.00 m long, and it is supported by a wire at an angle of u 5 60.0. The basket weighs 80.0 N. (a) Draw a force diagram

As a clue to the amount of organic waste in Lake Macatawa (see Example 7.1-4), a count was made of the number of bacteria colonies in 100 milliliters of water. The number of colonies, in hundreds, for \(n = 30\) samples of water from the east basin yielded \(\begin{array}{rrrrrrrrrr} 93 & 140 & 8 & 1
