Item 3 Hide Timer 01: 3 of 2 You are pushing an 80.0 N wheelbarrow as shown in (Figure 1). You lift upward on the handle of the wheelbarrow so that the only point of contact between the wheelbarrow and the ground is at the front wheel. Assume the distances are as shown in the figure, where 0.50 m is the horizontal distance from the center of the wheel to the center of gravity of the wheelbarrow. The center gravity of the dirt in the wheelbarrow is assumed to also be a horizontal distance of 0.50 m from the center of the wheel. Suppose that the maximum total upward force that you can apply to the wheelbarrow handles is 75 lb. Cons Part A If you apply this estimated force, what is the maximum weight of dirt that you can carry in the wheelbarrow? Express your answer in pounds. w = 6.42 lb Submit Previous Answers Completed Part B If the dirt has the weight you calculated in part A, what upward force does the ground apply to the wheel of the wheelbarrow?
