Two masses are connected by a string which passes over a pulley with negligible mass and friction. One mass hangs vertically and one mass slides on a 30.0 degrees incline. The inclined surface has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.200. The vertically hanging mass is 4.00 kg and the mass on the incline is 6.00 kg. The acceleration of the 4.00 kg mass is (the initial velocity of the 6.00 kg mass is up the incline)





A. 7.16

B. 5.84

C. 2.98

D. 1.53

E. 3.90

A neon light (thin hot neon gas in a sealed tube) gives us

A) a continuous spectrum, since the neon is hot enough to glow. B) a few bright emission lines, telling us the gas is neon. C) a continuum, with dark lines identifying the neon atoms that are present. D) a lot of random bright red lines due to the motion of the hot atoms. E) nothing visible to us, but a lot of infrared lines as heat.
