A track star runs two races on a certain day. The probability that he wins the first race is 0.7; the probability that he wins the second race is 0.6; and the probability that he wins both races is 0.5. Find the probability that

The 1.0 kg block in the figure is tied to the wall with a rope. It sits on top of the 2.0 kg block. The lower block is pulled to the right with a tension force of 20 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction at both the lower and upper surfaces of the 2.0 kg block is = 0.450.

Rod OA rotates counterclockwise with a constant angular velocity of 5 rad/s. The double collar B is pin-connected together such that one collar slides over the rotating rod and the other slides over the horizontal curved rod, of which the shape is described by the equation r = 1.5(2 - cosq) ft....
