A 200-g block is pressed against a spring of force constant 1.40 kN/m until the
block compresses the spring 10.0 cm. The spring rests at the bottom of a ramp inclined at
60.0° to the horizontal. Using energy considerations, determine how far up the incline the
block moves before it stops (a) if there is no friction between the block and the ramp and
(b) if the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.400.

Do you beleive that the weather we are having around the world is down to global warming? Or do you think it's down to something else?

I have read a theory that points to solar activity, I can't find the url (I will post it if / when I do). Anyway the basis is that of gravity, as we know the moon effects the tides on the planet, so the theory goes that other objects in the galaxy will also exert an influence on the earth. Added to the fact that in the back end of 2012 we are expecting a galaxy allignment (The ancient Mayan civilization predicted this thousands of year ago) It is therefore theoarised that the extra gravity is altering the climate and causing the freak weather.

The only reason why the government fail to mention this is because they can't tax us for it! Can you imagine, Planetry Alignment Tax???

What theories do you believe?

BTW, I agree with looking after the planet and recycling, I just don't believe that it is the cause of the freak weather we are having

I'm travelling to HK this December with a friend and thinking of going 2 Shenzhen for 2 days. What is the best way 2 get there from HK & what is the best way to get around there? Where should i go for sight seeing & shopping? Also like 2 check out the nite life i.e bars and niteclubs. Is it safe going out @ nite. Any tourist traps i should b looking out for? I have heard of horror stories in bars or clubs in asia countries where unsuspecting patrons unknowingly were charged excessively for drinks and so called club girls accompaying them for drinks. Should i be looking out for this and how to avoid this when visiting bars and clubs in Shenzhen? Lastly, where is a good hotel to stay?

The record cold of the decades of the 1940's, 1970's, 1980's and most recently the bitter northern hemisphere winters of 2000-2001, 2001-2002, 2002-2003 argue against the occurrence of harmful man induced climate change (global warming). Also Winter 2000-2001 and 2004-2005 in Siberian Russia, as well as Winter 2004 in Antarctica were the coldest in recorded history. And let's not forget that January 2004 in Boston, MA was the coldest January in 111 years. Grand Forks, ND set its all time record low of -44 deg. below zero F, Fosston, MN also at -50 deg. below zero F and Saskatchewan, Canada saw minimum temperatures fall to -62 deg. below zero F, all in Winter 2003-2004.

It is said that this results from baroreceptor-mediated sympathetic activation causing heart rate to increase, but what does taking a deep breath have to do with blood pressure? Why is this increase in heart rate NOT due to chemoreceptors stimulated but BARORECEPTOR?
