The description didn't claim Homework had to be science

I've had lots of problems getting people to give me their opinions and corrections on my essay, could you guys read like a paragraph of it or more and tell me what you think?

What class is it for?
(I’m looking at how you introduce the topic, stay on point, etc.)
 
The way we do things is very, very strict. It was the first time I read rules like that so it may seem odd (to me, the rules were). I was asked to start off with 2 paragraphs, the first one could not have any references to the book.

The essay is character analyzation. Of course, no "I, me, myself" etc. There had to be quotes with the page number. I wasn't sure if the page number came before or after the period, please check that to see if I am right and I consistently put it in the right place, though I doubt I did.

It is an essay for 10th Grade Honors English.
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
