Braces are used to apply forces to teeth to realign them. Shown in this figure are the tensions applied by the wire to the protruding tooth. The total force applied to the tooth by the wire, Fapp, points straight toward the back of the mouth. What force (in N) is exerted on the tooth in the figure below if the tension in the wire is 26.4 N? Note that the force applied to the tooth is smaller than the tension in the wire, but this is necessitated by practical considerations of how force can be applied in the mouth. 15° 15° T Fapo N Explicitly show how you follow steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy for Newton's laws of motion.

Consider the figure above, where a rigid beam of negligible mass and 10 m long is supported by a cable attached to a spring. When NO block is hung from the beam, the length L (cable-spring) is equal to 5 m. Assume that immediately after block (weight of 260 N) is hung at the end of the beam the spring does not stretch, calculate the tension under this assumption. Using this tension find how much the spring stretches. Express the amount the spring is stretched in cm. k =8275 N/m.
Two boxes are stacked as shown in the diagram below. The bottom box has a mass of 3.5 kg and the top box has amass of 1.5 kg. They are pushed up a ramp inclined at 15° by an applied force of 25 N, applied to the lower boxand directed parallel to the ramp. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ramp and the bottom box is 0.12.Determine the minimum coefficient of static friction required to keep the top box in place on the bottom box.
