You gave a friend an outrageously large birthday present of mass m=29.7 kg. Theyare excitedly holding it using both hands on opposite sides of the box. Each handapplies a normal force of equal magnitude to each side of the box.The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between their hands and the paper areμS = 0.61 and μK = 0.23, respectively. The box is on the verge of slipping but theyjust manage to hold it.BRHANDyHANDXWhat is the magnitude of the normal force applied by EACH of their hands to thebox?Provide your answer in Newtons to one decimal place.

A small block with mass m is set on the top of an upside-down hemispherical bowl. If the coefficient of static friction between the block and the bowl is μs and the block is slowly repositioned at different points down the surface of the bowl, at what angle measured from the vertical will the block begin to slide? Write your answer in terms of the mass, m; the gravitational acceleration on Earth, g; and the coefficient of static friction, μs. (Assume the +y axis is vertically upward.)

Baldwin Young is conducting his famous toupee experiments. He tips his head at a given angle and determines the coefficient of static and kinetic friction between a toupee (which is probably his own) and his scalp. At an angle of just barely 17.5 degrees, the toupee begins to accelerate from rest. Then Baldwin lowers the angle to 13.8 degrees to observe that the toupee moves with a constant speed. Use this information to determine the coefficients of both static and kinetic friction. Begin with a free-body diagram. PSYW
The system shown consists of 3 cables. For instance; cable C12 joins points 1 and 2. The coordinates of point 1 are (7.79, 0, 0) m, those of point 2 are (0, 7.58, 9.77) m, and those of point 3 are (0, 7.58, -9.77) m. The force P = 99 kN. Determine the force in cable C14.
A stone has a mass of 8.79 g and is wedged into the tread of an automobile tire, as the drawing shows. The coefficient of static friction between the stone and each side of the tread channel is 0.818. When the tire surface is rotating at 10.9m/s, the stone flies out the tread. The magnitude FN of the normal force that each side of the tread channel exerts on the stone is 2.46 N. Assume that only static friction supplies the centripetal force, and determines the radius r of the tire (in terms of m)
Students are performing an experiment with the setup shown above, where a block of mass M sits on a horizontal table. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is μk. The block is connected to a hanging object over a pulley. The pulley has negligible mass and friction. The string connecting the two is very light and does not stretch. The students add mass to the hanging object so that its mass is m, where m < M, and the block-hanging object system is released from rest. The hanging object falls for a distance h, at which point it collides with the ground and comes to rest. The block on the table keeps sliding and travels a total distance d before coming to rest. It does not reach the pulley, and d > h. A student creates a data table (see image) for the net force exerted on the block during the speeding up and slowing down portions of the experiment. (d) Does the block of mass M spend more time speeding up or slowing down? Justify your answer.
