In Fig. 13-57, identical blocks with identical masses m = 2.00 kg hang from strings of different lengths on a balance at Earth's surface, The strings have negligible mass and differ in length by h = 5.00 cm, Assume Earth is spherical with a uniform density ρ = 5.50 g/cm3. What is the difference in the weight of the blocks due to one being closer to Earth than the other?

- a 300 kg cylinder that is horizontal. Three steel wires support the cylinder from a ceiling.Wires 1 and 3 are attached at the ends of the cylinder, and wire 2 is attached at the center. The wires each have a crosssectional area of 2.00 * 10-6 m2. Initially (before the cylinder was put in place) wires 1 and 3 were 2.0000 m long and wire 2 was 6.00 mm longer than that.
