Walking without slipping requires a static friction force between your feet (or footwear) and the floor. The force on your foot as you push off the floor is forward while the force exerted by your foot on the floor is backward. But what about your other foot, the one moved during a stride? What is the direction of the force on that foot as it comes into contact with the floor? Explain.
A 2000-kg truck is being used to lift a 400-kg boulder B that is on
a 50-kg pallet A. Knowing the acceleration of the rear-wheel-drive
truck is 1 m/s², determine (a) the reaction at each of the front
wheels, (b) the force between the boulder and the pallet.
