a wall that it just crashed through. This is not as appropriate as the mule
for equilibrium, but it is comparable to the ladder resting against a wall
problem. The picture is on the cover of John R. Taylor's 'An Introduction
to Error Analysis', 1982, University Science Books, Mill Valley, CA. I'm
not sure about copyright, but for individual use can't this be scanned and
simply e-mailed to anyone interested?

Subject: references to equilibrium photos

I recall seeing some interesting photos of systems in equilibrium; perhaps
they were in the Physics Teacher or something. One picture was of a mule
suspended in the air by the tipped cart that it was harnessed to. Does
anyone have the reference to the article or a URL where I can find these or
other interesting photos of systems in equilibrium?
