Mars is often called a "midway world," similar in some respects to Earth, and in others to our Moon. Explain
What will be an ideal response?
Like our Moon, much of Mars is ancient cratered terrain, and its density is closer to that of the Moon than Earth. But like us, Mars has seasonal variations, polar caps, clouds, an atmosphere, dust storms, and signs of past liquid water and erosion.

A steel pipe column (E 5 210 GPa) with length L 5 4.25 m is constructed of circular tubing with outside diameter d2 5 90 mm and inner diameter d1 5 64 mm. The pipe column is fixed at the base and pinned at the top and may buckle in any direction. The Euler buckling load of the column is most nearly:
(A) 303 kN
(B) 560 kN
(C) 690 kN
(D) 720 kN
