- While digging a small hole prior to planting a tree, a homeowner encounters rocks. If he exerts a horizontal 239-N force on the prybar as shown, what is the horizontal force exerted on rock C? Note that a small ledge on rock C supports a vertical force reaction there. Neglect friction at B. Complete solutions (a) including and (b) excluding the weight of the 17-kg prybar.

- I need help with this Hw Problem.arrow_forwardIn the situation illustrated in the figure below, a small package is deposited by a conveyor belt at point A onto a ramp at 0 = 50° degrees to the horizontal with a velocity of 0.8 m/s. The distance between points A and Bis 2 m. C В a) Calculate the maximum value 4t of the kinetic friction coefficient between the package and the ramp AB for which the parcel reaches point B. b) If the actual kinetic friction coefficient between the package and AB and BC is µi = 0.6 H, calculate the distance s on the level surface BC at which the package comes to rest.arrow_forwardA 235 N crate rests on a ramp; the maximum angle just before it slips is 27.8° with the horizontal. What is the coefficient of static friction between crate and ramp surfaces? Answer:arrow_forward
- A 1520-N crate is to be held in place on a ramp that rises at 30.0° above the horizontal (see figure). The massless rope attached to the crate makes a 22.0° angle above the surface of the ramp. The coefficients of friction between the crate and the surface of the ramp are uk = 0.450 and ls = 0.650 The pulley has no appreciable mass or friction. What is the MAXIMUM weight w that can be used to hold this crate stationary on the ramp? w = ? 22.0° Crate Ramp 30.0°arrow_forwardMany birds can attain very high speeds when diving. Using radar, scientists measured the altitude of a barn swallow in a vertical dive; it dropped 208 m in 3.0 s. The mass of the swallow was estimated to be 0.018 kg, and its cross-section area as 5.6 x 10-4 m2. What was the drag coefficient for this swallow as it dove?arrow_forwardA 118 kg box sits on a flat surface where it has a static friction coefficient of us = 0.524 anda kinetic friction coefficient of Mx = 0.318. What is the minimum horizontal force that a worker mustapply in order to get the box to begin moving?arrow_forward
- Please answer it within 30 minutes.I will upvote! A skier is going down a hill at a constant speed in the downward direction. The skier’s mass is 70 ?? and the hill is at an angle of 30° with respect to the horizontal. Both surface friction and air drag are considered. What is the air drag force (in unit of N) along the direction of the velocity? Assume the kinetic coefficient of friction is 0.3; the gravity on the earth is 9.8 m/s2; cos(30 degree) is 0.866, and sin(30 degree) is 0.5. Round the answer to two decimal points. (You must use the numbers/constants provided here for the calculation)arrow_forwardIn a pickup game of dorm shuffleboard, students crazed by final exams use a broom to propel a calculus book along the dorm hallway. If the 3.5 kg book is pushed from rest through a distance of 0.92 m by the horizontal 26 N force from the broom and then has a speed of 1.28 m/s, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the book and floor?arrow_forwardYou are trying to slide a heavy trunk across a horizontal floor. The mass of the trunk is 85kg, and you need to exert a force of 3.3*10^2 N to make it just begin to move. a)Determine the coefficient of static friction between the floor and the trunk.b)After the trunk starts moving, you continue to push with this force. The trunk reaches a speed of 2.0m/s after 5.0s. Calculate the acceleration of the trunk if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the trunk and the floor is 0.32.arrow_forward
