Hi I needed help with this. An athlete with a mass of 53.5 kg is doing pushups as shown in the figure below. The value for rW⊥ is 1.00 m and the value for rR⊥ is 1.60 m. (a) Assuming she moves upward at a constant speed, determine the force she must exert on the floor with each hand to do a push-up.(b) The triceps muscle in the back of her upper arm with an effective lever arm of rT⊥ = 1.70 cm, as shown in the figure below, and she exerts force on the floor a horizontal distance of r 'R⊥ = 2.05 cm from the elbow joint. Determine the force in the triceps muscle.In order to appreciate the strength of the triceps, determine the ratio of the force in the tricep muscle to her weight (in decimal form). FT/W = ?
9. Two blocks are positioned on surfaces, each inclined at the same angle of 58.3 degrees with respect to the horizontal. The blocks are connected by a rope which rests on a frictionless pulley at the top of the inclines as shown, so the blocks can slide together. The mass of the black block is 3.66 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction for both blocks and inclines is 0.460. Assume static friction has been overcome and that everything can slide. What is must be the mass of the white block if both blocks are to slide to the LEFT at an acceleration of 1.5 m/s^2? 2.16 kg 9.99 kg 6.02 kg 3.06 kg

Q4) The Great Valerio is performing his high wire act. He stands on a (massless wire) exactly in the middle of two posts a distance d = 50.1 m apart. The wire buckles under his weight and he ends up h = 1.25 m below the vertical location where %3D the wire is attached to the posts. Valerio has a mass of my= = 73.5 kg. What is the tension of the wire ? h d/2 d/2 E
