- (II) Arlene is to walk across a “high wire" strung horizontally between two buildings 10.0 m apart. The sag in the rope when she is at the midpoint is 10.0°, as shown in Fig. 4-47. If her mass is 50.0 kg, what is the tension in the rope at this point? 10.0° FIGURE 4-47 Problem 23.arrow_forwardThe 70.0-kg climber in Fig. 4-72 is supported in the “chimney" by the friction forces exerted on his shoes and back. The static coefficients of friction between his shoes and the wall, and between his back and the wall, are 0.80 and 0.60, respectively. What is the minimum normal force he must exert? Assume the walls are ver- tical and that the static friction forces are both at their maximum. Ignore his grip on the rope.
