This question is hard to solve without a diagram. Draw a line of approximately 38° above the horizontal, so that it represents the slide. Next, draw a vertical arrow with its tail connected to the angled line about halfway down to represent the child’s we...

Sorry, I was typing up an answer and didn't see that there was already a response.

Draw a free body diagram for M. It is going to accelerate in the direction of the "winning force" at 1.5 m/s^2. Find the net force as it is the vector sum of the forces acting on the block. Use the net force to find the tension.

A textbook definition: the property of a fluid that determines its resistance to flow; a high viscosity means a high resistance to flow. What does that mean? Based on internal friction, some fluids are less "runny" than others. Molasses is a very viscous...

an = d (n - 1) + c, where d is the common difference between consecutive terms, and c = a1. an=8(n-1)+5. Get rid of the brackets and gather like terms then substitute n=100
