The person in Figure P5.6 weighs 170 lb. As seen from the front, each light crutch makes an angle of 22.0 with the vertical. Half of the persons weight is supported by the crutches. The other half is supported by the vertical forces of the ground on the persons feet. Assuming that the person is moving with constant velocity and the force exerted by the ground on the crutches acts along the crutches, determine (a) the smallest possible coefficient of friction between crutches and ground and (b) the magnitude of the compression force in each crutch.

A person pushes on a stationary 125 N box with a force of 93N at 30 degrees below the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the horizontal floor is 0.76. what is the normal force on the box? what is the friction force on the box? what is the largest the friction force could be? the person now replaces his push with a 93N pull at 30degrees above the horizontal. Find the normal force on the box in this case.
