In the process of cutting a metal piece to obtained chips, a cutting force of 100 N, a tangential force of 120 N, and a rake angle of 250 are applied.
Use a scale and protractor, to measure off distances (forces) [R-resultant force, F-friction force and N-normal force], and friction angle.
The elevations of the ski jumping hill shown below are as follows:
hA = 37 mhB = 2.4 mhC = 5.5 m
