Figure P8.74 shows a vertical force applied tangentially to a uniform cylinder of weight w. The coefficient of static friction between the cylinder and all surfaces is 0.380. Find, in terms of w, the maximum force
F that can be applied without causing the cylinder to rotate. (Hint: When the cylinder is on the verge of slipping, both friction forces are at their maximum values.)

Homework Q6.
A person sits in a chair that is free to rotate without friction. Intheir hands, they hold two masses: Mass m1 = 5.0 kg a distance r1 = 0.35m from their body and mass m2 = 3.0 kg a distance r2 = 0.75 m from their body.
a. What is the moment of inertia of the person and twomasses about a vertical axis that goes through the person? Hint: because of the choice of axis, we can ignore Iperson.
