- Suppose you have a stack of 17 identical steel bars (steel bars have a mass of 1.00kg each). You are required to pull out bar number 16 from the stack (counting from the top of the stack down). Assuming that your assistant holds all other bars in place. If the coefficient of friction between steel and steel is 0.750, how hard do you have to pull (in N)?A horse is harnessed to a sled having a mass of 211 kg, including supplies. The horse must exert a force exceeding 1200 N at an angle of 38.3° (above the horizontal) in order to get the sled moving. Treat the sled as a point particle. (a) Calculate the normal force (in N) on the sled when the magnitude of the applied force is 1200 N. (Enter the magnitude.) N (b) Find the coefficient of static friction between the sled and the ground beneath it. (c) Find the static friction force (in N) when the horse is exerting a force of 6.00 ✕ 102 N on the sled at the same angle. (Enter the magnitude.)A particular bridge, with a length L, consists of a horizontal slab with a weight of 50.0 kN, with the weight uniformly distributed. The slab is held up by one support 20% of the way across the bridge, and a second support 80% of the way across the bridge. As shown in the picture, a truck with a weight of mg = 12.0 kN is driving from left to right across the bridge. 0.4L horizontal slab mg| 0.2L 0.2L (a) Once the truck is completely off the bridge, how much force will the left support exert on the horizontal slab? We're looking for an answer in kilonewtons (kN), which is what values are given in above. kN (b) When the truck is at the position shown, where its full weight can be taken to act at a point 40% of the way across the bridge, calculate the force that each support exerts on the horizontal slab. We're looking for two answers-the value of each of the support forces. The force exerted by the left support is kN. The force exerted by the right support is kN. (c) As the truck…
- A sailor is being rescued using a boatswain’s chair that is suspended from a pulley that can roll freely on the support cable ACB and is pulled at a constant speed by cable CD . Knowing that a = 30° and β = 10° and that the combined weight of the boatswain’s chair and the sailor is 200 lb, determine the tension (a) in the support cable ACB, (b) in the traction cable CD.In 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 other side (see the figure). Sincosky's mass was 83.0 kg. If the coefficient of static friction between hand and rafter was 0.710, 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.) Number UnitsA 10.0 kg mass is at rest on a board inclined at an angle of 30.0o above the horizontal. The mass is held in place by the combination of static friction and the 10.6 N tension in a cord attached to the mass on the uphill side, and running parallel to the board. Find the coefficient of static friction (s) between the mass and the board.
