Why is kinetic friction less than static?

Laboratory experiments, observational field studies, and model-building are all examples of different forms of scientific investigations.  in what way do laboratory experiments primarily differ from other forms of scientific investigations?   a.  a laboratory experiment is the only accepted form of investigation within the scientific community.  b.  studies about how things behave in nature or studies involving very large objects are best answered through laboratory experiments.  c.  laboratory experiments involve the identification and control of variables.  d.  data can only be generated through laboratory experiments, not other forms of investigation.

Use the right-hand rule for magnetic force to determine the charge on the moving particle. this is a charge.

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.
