Description:
On April 30, 2015, NASA's MESSENGER mission came to an end when the spacecraft intentionally crashed into the surface of Mercury. <br/><br/>MESSENGER was the first spacecraft to orbit Mercury and the second spacecraft to study it up close after NASA's Mariner 10 flew by the planet in the 1970s. MESSENGER spent four years orbiting Mercury. During that time, it mapped the surface of Mercury in unprecedented detail. The mission discovered water ice and organic compounds around Mercury's north pole. It also found that Mercury has a weird offset magnetic field that doesn't line up with its axis of rotation. The mission was only supposed to last one year, but NASA extended it twice so it could continue its groundbreaking observations of Mercury. It eventually ran out of fuel, so NASA intentionally crashed it into Mercury, where it created a new crater.

The initial position of the wire is made so that it is very close to the rotational axis of the scissors. The scissors are dull so they won't cut the wire at all. In the process, this wire shifts away from the scissors' rotation axis. The opening angle of the scissors when the wire no longer moves is θ. Draw an object force diagram! Calculate the value of θ! The coefficient of friction between the scissors and the wire is μ.<br/><br/><br/>#DynamicsOfMotion #PhysicsOlympiad")
