- In about 1915, Henry Sincosky of Philadelphia suspended himself from a rafter by gripping the rafter with the thumb of each hand on one side and the fingers on the opposite side. Sincosky’s mass was 79 kg. If the coefficient of static friction between hand and rafter was 0.70, what was the least magnitude of the normal force on the rafter from each thumb or opposite fingers? (After suspending himself, Sincosky chinned himself on the rafter and then moved hand-over-hand along the rafter. If you do not think Sincosky’s grip was remarkable, try to repeat his stunt.)arrow_forwardIn about 1915, Henry Sincosky of Philadelphia suspended himself from a rafter by gripping the rafter with the thumb of each hand on one side and the fingers of the other side.

- A 100 N force, directed at an angle u above a horizontal floor, is applied to a 25.0 kg chair sitting on the floor. If u =0, what are (a) the horizontal component Fh of the applied force and (b) the magnitude FN of the normal force of the floor on the chair? If u =30.0, what are (c) Fh and (d) FN? If u =60.0, what are (e) Fh and (f) FN? Now assume that the coefficient of static friction between chair and floor is 0.420.
