The maximum values of a₁, a₂, a₃, a₄ and h to make the stack in equilibrium are; a₁_max = L/2; a₂_max = L/4; a₃_max = - L/6; a₄_max = -L/8; h = 25L/24

<h3>What is the maximum width?</h3>

The system is in equilibrium and length of each brick = L

a) For brick 1;

Due to the fact that the center of gravity lies to the right of L/2,

Then we can say that the maximum value of a₁ = L/2

b) For brick 2;

Since the center of gravity lies to the right of L/2, then we can say that;

The maximum value of a₂ = ¹/₂a₁_max

Thus, the maximum value of a₂ = L/4

c) For brick 3;

Taking the moment of force, the maximum value of a₃ is;

a₃_max =  [(-¹/₂mL) + 2m(0)]/(2m +m)

a₃_max = - L/6

d) For the brick 4;

Taking the moment of force, the maximum value of a₄ is;

a₄ = [3(0) m + m(-L/2)]/(3m + m)

a₄_max = -L/8

e) The value of h = |a1| + |a2| +|a3| + |a4|

h = L/2 + L/4 + L/6 + L/8

h = ((12 + 6 + 4 + 3)/24)L

h = 25L/24

On the map 5th ave. 6th ave. and 7th ave. are parallel
noname [10]

The length of Main St. between 5th Ave. and  6th Ave Round to the nearest hundredth is; 0.24 km

<h3>How to use triangle proportionality theorem?</h3>

From the image attached, we are given that 5th Avenue is parallel to 6th avenue.

Now, Let the length of main street between 5th and 6th Avenue be x.

By using the triangle proportionality theorem, we have;

0.4/x = 0.5/0.3

Thus;

x = (0.4 * 0.3)/0.5

x = 0.24 km

In conclusion, the length of street is 0.24 km
