Self-presentation has to do with the way we package ourselves for others to see. This topic is especially relevant now with the popularity of social media. There are two types of self-presentation: strategic and verification. Which form of presentation is predominant in social media? Explain and support with examples. Discuss some of the positive and negative aspects associated with social media.

Logan B. Taylor is a widower whose wife, Sara, died on June 6, 2016. He lives at 4680 Dogwood Lane, Springfield, MO 65801. He is employed as a paralegal by a local law firm. During 2018, he had the following receipts:
| Salary | $ 80,000 | |||
| Interest income— | ||||
| Money market account at Omni Bank | $300 | |||
| Savings account at Boone State Bank | 1,100 | |||
| City of Springfield general purpose bonds | 3,000 | 4,400 | ||
| Inheritance from Daniel | 60,000 | |||
| Life insurance proceeds | 200,000 | |||
| Amount from sale of St. Louis lot | 80,000 | |||
| Proceeds from estate sale | 9,000 | |||
| Federal income tax refund (for 2017 tax overpayment) | 700 |
Logan inherited securities worth $60,000 from his uncle, Daniel, who died in 2018. Logan also was the designated beneficiary of an insurance policy on Daniel's life with a maturity value of $200,000. The lot in St. Louis was purchased on May 2, 2013, for $85,000 and held as an investment. Because the neighborhood has deteriorated, Logan decided to cut his losses and sold the lot on January 5, 2018, for $80,000. The estate sale consisted largely of items belonging to Sara and Daniel (e.g., camper, boat, furniture, and fishing and hunting equipment). Logan estimates that the property sold originally cost at least twice the $9,000 he received and has declined or stayed the same in value since Sara and Daniel died.
Logan's expenditures for 2018 include the following:
| Medical expenses (including $10,500 for dental) | $11,500 | |||
| Taxes— | ||||
| State of Missouri income tax (includes withholdings during 2018) | $4,200 | |||
| Property taxes on personal residence | 4,500 | 8,700 | ||
| Interest on home mortgage (Boone State Bank) | 5,600 | |||
| Contribution to church (paid pledges for 2018 and 2019) | 4,800 |
Logan and his dependents are covered by his employer's health insurance policy for all of 2018. However, he is subject to a deductible, and dental care is not included. The $10,500 dental charge was for Helen's implants. Helen is Logan's widowed mother, who lives with him (see below). Logan normally pledges $2,400 ($200 per month) each year to his church. On December 5, 2018, upon the advice of his pastor, he prepaid his pledge for 2019.
Logan's household, all of whom he supports, includes the following:
| Social Security Number | Birth Date | |
| Logan Taylor (age 48) | 123-45-6787 | 08/30/1970 |
| Helen Taylor (age 70) | 123-45-6780 | 01/13/1948 |
| Asher Taylor (age 23) | 123-45-6783 | 07/18/1995 |
| Mia Taylor (age 22) | 123-45-6784 | 02/16/1996 |
Helen receives a modest Social Security benefit. Asher, a son, is a full-time student in dental school and earns $4,500 as a part-time dental assistant. Mia, a daughter, does not work and is engaged to be married.
Federal income tax of $4,500 was withheld from his wages.

A ladder of length 2L and mass M is positioned on level ground leaning against a wall such
that the angle between the ladder and the horizontal is α. The coefficient of static friction
between the ladder and the wall and between the ladder and the ground is μstatic = 0.65. The
centre of mass of the ladder is halfway along it.
(b) Draw a diagram indicating all the forces acting on the ladder, and state what each force
represents. Also show the direction of the x- and y-axes you will use. (Hint: there are 2
forces acting at the top of the ladder, 2 forces acting on the bottom of the ladder and 1 force
acting at its centre.)
(c) For the ladder to be in mechanical equilibrium:
(i) Write down equations for the total x- and y-components of the 5 forces acting on the
ladder.
(ii) Consider torques about the centre of the ladder. In which direction (into or out of the
page) does the torque due to each of the 5 forces force act?
(iii) Write down an equation for the sum of the torques about the centre of mass of the
ladder.
(iv) Use your equation for the torques to derive an expression for tan α in terms of the
magnitudes of the forces acting.
(d)(i) If the ladder is just on the point of slipping at both the upper and lower ends, what
can you say about the pair of forces acting at each of the top and bottom of the ladder?
(ii) Hence use this information, with the information from (c)(i) and the expression you have
derived in (c)(iv) to calculate the minimum angle that the ladder can form with the ground
in order for it not to slip. (Hint : In the expression for tan α, you will need to write each of
the forces in terms of one of the normal reaction forces, which then cancel out, leaving an
expression for tan α in terms of μstatic only.)

1) A block of mass 5.67 kg rests on a horizontal table. The block is pushed with a force of 70.2N that makes an angles of 25.0 degrees with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and surface of the table is 0.256. What is the acceleration of the block? What is its speed after traveling 2.30m?
2) The volume and the pressure of the Argon gas of 2.00 mol are 2.000L and 10.0atm respectively. The molar mass of Argon is 40.00 g/mol. Wha id the vrms speed of argon atom?
Compare this with vrms speed of hydrogen under the same conditions! Molar mass of hydrogen is 2,00g/mol.
1 atm = 10^5 Pa; 1L = 10^-3 m^3. R = 8.314 J/mol.k

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when speaker 2 is at the origin and speaker 1 is at x = 0.450 m . If speaker 1 is slowly moved forward, the sound intensity decreases and then increases, reaching another maximum when speaker 1 is at x = 0.850 m.
A.What is the frequency of the sound? Assume vsound =340m/s.
