*64. GO A block is pressed against a vertical wall by a force P, as the drawing shows. This force can either push the block upward at a constant ve- locity or allow it to slide downward at a constant velocity. The magnitude of the force is different in the two cases, while the directional angle 0 is the same. Kinetic friction exists between the block and the wall, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.250. The weight of the block is 39.0 N, and the directional angle for the force P is 0 = 30.0°. Determine the magnitude of P when the block slides (a) up the wall and (b) down the wall.

A chair of weight 75.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F = 38.0 NN directed at an angle of 34.0 DEGREES below the horizontal and the chair slides along the floor.
