    Geometric and arithmetic series, pulleys in parallell

    Resistances in series can be reduced to a unique resistance R such that eq(1) R= r1 + r2 +...+ rn in Parallel , we have eq (2) 1/ (1/r1 +1/r2 +...+ 1/rn) For the pulleys , to reduce the effort to keep a block and tackle (which has a mass M at he end) in equilibrium , the necessary force F to

    Urysohn's Lemma for Normal Spaces

    A Hausdorff space is said to be completely regular if for each pt. x in X and closed set C with x not in C, there exists a continuous function f: X --> {0,1} s.t. f(x)=0 and f(C)={1}. Show that if a space is normal, it is completely regular. How do I use Urysohn's lemma along with Hausdorffiness to show this. Thank
