Question
Both girls arrive at the same time at opposite sides of a door that can swing open in both directions. Without either of them knowing that someone is on the other side, Carly pushes with a force of 1,000-N at a 60° angle 40-cm from the hinge, while Delaney pushes perpendicularly with a force of 650-N 65-cm from the hinge. In which direction does the door open? Demonstrate and explain.

- When you lift an object by moving only your forearm, the main lifting muscle in your arm is the biceps. Suppose the mass of a forearm with hand is 1.60 kg. If the biceps is connected to the forearm a distance of 2.2 cm from the elbow, how much force must the biceps exert to hold a 39 N ball at the end of the forearm at distance of 36.0 cm from the elbow, with the forearm parallel to the floor, in Newtons? Use g = 10.0 m/s2. Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive.

- The figure below shows a claw hammer being used to pull a nail out of a horizontal board where ? = 27.3°. The mass of the hammer is 1.00 kg. A force of 165 N is exerted horizontally as shown, and the nail does not yet move relative to the board. Assume the force the hammer exerts on the nail is parallel to the nail. A hand uses a hammer to pull a nail out of the ground. The head of the hammer is curved and touches the ground at a single point of contact at the center of the head. The nail in the ground makes an acute angle ? clockwise from the vertical. The nail is hooked in the hammer claw 5.00 cm horizontally to the left of the hammer head's point of contact to the ground.
