- You are holding a book of mass 10.7 kg that is initially at rest against a vertical wall by exerting a force of magnitudeF Yb = 100.8 N at an angle of θ = 34.7 degrees, as indicated in the figure.If the coefficients of friction between the book and the wall are μs = 0.46 and μk = 0.36, find the magnitude of thefrictional force from the wall on the book.arrow_forwardIn about 1915, Henry Sincosky of Philadelphia suspended himself from a rafter by gripping the rafter with the thumb of each hand on one side and the fingers on the opposite side. Sincosky’s mass was 79 kg. If the coefficient of static friction between hand and rafter was 0.70, what was the least magnitude of the normal force on the rafter from each thumb or opposite fingers? (After suspending himself, Sincosky chinned himself on the rafter and then moved hand-over-hand along the rafter. If you do not think Sincosky’s grip was remarkable, try to repeat his stunt.)arrow_forwardA particle of mass 0.5 kg is at rest on a rough plane inclined at an angle to the horizontal where sin = 3/5. The particle is just prevented fromsliding from the plane by a force of 2 N applied in an upward directionparallel to a line of the greatest slope of the plane.(a) Draw a figure showing all the forces acting on the particle. (b) Calculate the coefficient of friction between the particle and theplane.(c) Calculate by how much the force of 2 N must be increased so thatthe particle is about to move up the plane.arrow_forward

The first force is directed in the negative x-direction with a magnitude of E = 8.5 N. The second has a magnitude of F, = 23.75 N and acts on the body at an angle 0 = 15° measured from horizontal, as shown. F2 Farrow_forward
