Consider the argument, Most employees want recognition and become dissatisfied if they do not receive credit for the work they do. If someone receives credit then she receives some goods or services prior to paying for them. So most employees will become dissatisfied if they do not, in exchange for their work, receive some goods or services before paying for them. What might be best said of the flaw in the argument? Question 8Select one: a. The word ‘credit’ is ambiguous. In one use it means ‘recognition’ and in another use it means ‘receive goods or services prior to paying for them.’ b. The argument contains a use-mention confusion. The author mentions ‘goods and services’ but does not use the phrase. c. It’s a fallacy of composition. Just because it’s true of some employees doesn’t mean it’s true of all of them. d. The word ‘dissatisfied’ is vague. It can mean ‘unhappy’ and it can mean ‘doubly contented.’

no friction MOTION M the disk rotates and the axle is fixed the cord does not slip on the disk Parameters of the disk: mass M, radius R, moment of inertia I m (D) See the figure. The pulley is a disk with mass M, radius R, and moment of inertia = I. Let $\phi$ be the angle of rotation of the pulley; and let $\phi'$ be the angular velocity. (i) Write the total kinetic energy of the system in terms of $\phi'$. (ii) Write the gravitational potential energy in terms of $\phi$. (iii) The total energy has the form $1/2 \mu \phi'^2 - \Gamma \phi$, so use part A to determine the angular acceleration. (iv) If M = 0, what is $\alpha$? (v) If M = m, what is $\alpha$?
