The figure below shows a block weighing 22 N in contact with a vertical wall. Two forces are applied to the block, in addition to gravity, a horizontal force F of magnitude 60 N which pushes the block against a vertical wall and a force P of magnitude 62 N which pushes upward on the bottom of the block parallel to the wall. The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the block is 0.55 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between them is 0.38. Is the frictional force acting on the block static or kinetic, what is its magnitude and in what direction does it point? F - P
