A 13-N weight and a 12-N weight are connected by a massless string over a massless, frictionless pulley. The 13-N weight has a downward acceleration with magnitude equal to that of a freely falling body times:
A. 1
B. 1/12
C. 1/13
D. 1/25
E. 13/25

A5 foot by 5 foot box culvert is buried 6 feet beneath the surface of the ground. a crosssection of this very long culvert (into and out of the page) is illustrated below. assume that the soil in which the culvert is buried has the following properties: jt = 120 pcf, w = 12%, ko = 0.50, ka = 0.33, and kp = 3.00. calculate the total horizontal force per unit length of culvert (fh) felt on one of the vertical faces of the culvert.

The bubbles in a carbonated soft drink are produced when carbonic acid decomposes to form carbon dioxide and water. in a closed system, this equilibrium exists as why does a carbonated soft drink lose carbonation when the container is left open? a.water evaporates, which favors the formation of h2co3. b.pressure decreases, which favors the formation of h2co3. c.the open container warms up, which causes more gas to escape. d.co2is removed, which favors the formation of h2co3.

In general what determines whether atoms will form chemical bonds?
