Jamal and Dayo are lifting a large chest, weighing 207 lb, by using the two rope handles attached to either side. As they lift and hold it up so that it is motionless, each handle makes a different angle with respect to the vertical side of the chest (Fig. P5.76). If the angle between Jamals handle and the vertical side is 25.0 and the angle between Dayos handle and the vertical side of the chest is 30.0, what are the tensions in each handle? FIGURE P5.76

An aluminum block of mass m1 = 2.00 kg and a copper block of mass m2 = 6.00 kg are connected by a light string over a frictionless pulley. They sit on a steel surface as shown in Figure P5.46, where = 30.0. (a) When they are released from rest, will they start to move? If they do, determine (b) their acceleration and (c) the tension in the string. If they do not move, determine (d) the sum of the magnitudes of the forces of friction acting on the blocks. Figure P5.46
The person in Figure P5.6 weighs 170 lb. As seen from the front, each light crutch makes an angle of 22.0 with the vertical. Half of the persons weight is supported by the crutches. The other half is supported by the vertical forces of the ground on the persons feet. Assuming that the person is moving with constant velocity and the force exerted by the ground on the crutches acts along the crutches, determine (a) the smallest possible coefficient of friction between crutches and ground and (b) the magnitude of the compression force in each crutch.

You are playing with your daughter in the snow. She sits on a sled and asks you to slide her across a flat, horizontal field. You have a choice of (a) pushing her from behind, by applying a force downward on her shoulders at 30 below the horizontal (Fig. 5.2a) or (b) attaching a rope to the front of the sled and pulling with a force at 30 above the horizontal (Fig 5.2b). Which would be easier for you and why?

An early submersible craft for deep-sea exploration was raised and lowered by a cable from a ship. When the craft was stationary, the tension in the cable was 6500 N. When the craft was lowered or raised at a steady rate, the motion through the water added an 1800 N drag force. What is the weight of the rider?

An 11 kg block of steel is at rest on a horizontal table. The coefficient of static friction between block and table is 0.52.
