You are required to pull out bar number 16 from the stack (counting from the top of the stack down). Assuming that your assistant holds all other bars in place. If the coefficient of friction between steel and steel is 0.750, how hard do you have to pull (in N)?arrow_forward(a) What is the maximum frictional force (in N) in the knee joint of a person who supports 83.0 kg of her mass on that knee? 13.01 N (b) During strenuous exercise it is possible to exert forces to the joints that are easily ten times greater than the weight being supported. What is the maximum force of friction (in N) under such conditions? (The frictional forces in joints are relatively small in all circumstances except when the joints deteriorate, such as from injury or arthritis. Increased frictional forces can cause further damage and pain.) 105823.34 X Narrow_forward
