Suppose you are standing directly behind someone who steps back and accidentally stomps on your foot with the heel of one shoe. Would you be better off if that person were (a) a large, male professional basketballplayer wearing sneakers or (b) a petite woman wearing spike-heeled shoes?

ma tug-of-war game on one campus, 15 students pull on a rope at both ends in an effort to displace the central knot to one side or the other. Two students pull with force 196 N each to the right, four students pull with force 87 N each to the left, five students pull with force 62 N each to the left, three students pull with force 150 N each to the right, and one student pulls with force 250 N to the left. Assuming the positive direction to the right, express the net pull on the knot in terms of the unit vector. How big is the net pull on the knot? In what direction? net pull N to the Select an answer v %3D TA 8088 ni pnibne inu

A 20.4 kg mass (m) is suspended by the cable assembly as shown in the figure. The cables have no mass of their own. The cable to the left (T) of the mass makes an angle of 0.00° with the horizontal, and the cable to the right (T2) makes an angle (02) of 30.1°. If the mass is at rest, what is the tension in each of the cables, T and T2? The acceleration due to gravity T, T, is g = 9.81 m/s². N T1 = m N T2 =

Two children push on opposite sides of a door during play. Both push horizontally and perpendicular to the surface of the door. One child pushes with a force of 17 N at a distance of 0.585 m from the hinges, and the second child pushes at a distance of 0.465 m. What is the magnitude of the force, in newtons, the second child must exert to keep the door from moving? Assume friction is negligible. F2=

The figure below shows a bird feeder that weighs 100.1 N. The feeder is supported by a vertical wire, which is in turn tied to two wires, each of which is attached to a horizontal support. The left wire makes a 60° angle with the support, while the right wire makes a 30° angle. What is the tension in each wire (in N)
