Two EMTS are carrying a person on a stretcher. The weight of the person and the stretcher is 600 N. 1. If both of them carry the stretcher at the same angle, 60° above the horizontal. Each of them exerts (less, same, more) amount of force as the other paramedic. (1) 2. Draw an FBD. (4) 3. Find the y- components exerted forces by the paramedics. (4) 4. Find the x- components exerted forces by the paramedics. (2) 5. Find the forces exerted by the EMTS. (3) 6. If the paramedics did not carry the stretcher at the same angle, the person carries it at a (larger/smaller) angle, compares to the horizontal, would exert more force. Explain your answer. (1)
