Tarzan, who weighs 820 N, swings from a cliff at the end of a 20.0 m vine that hangs from a high tree limb and initially makes an angle of 22.0 with the vertical. Assume that an x axis extends horizontally away from the cliff edge and a y axis extends upward. Immediately after Tarzan steps off the cliff, the tension in the vine is 760 N. Just then, what are (a) the force on him from the vine in unit-vector notation and the net force on him (b) in unit-vector notation and as (c) a magnitude and (d) an angle relative to the positive direction of the x axis? What are the (e) magnitude and (f) angle of Tarzan’s acceleration just then?

In most of the problems you have dealt with so far, weight is equal in magnitude to that of the normal force. Is it possible for the normal force not to be equal to weight? Explain your answer. Yes, it is possible. Oftentimes, normal force counteracts the weight, thus making them equal. This happens when the object is situated on a horizontal surface and the force is exerted on the direction of the gravitational field. Otherwise, as in the case of an elevator accelerating downwards, N and W will not equalize. Yes, it is possible. Oftentimes, normal force counteracts the weight, thus making them equal. This happens when the object is situated on a vertical surface and the force is exerted on the direction of the gravitational field.

In the figure, a slab of mass m1 = 40 kg rests on a frictionless floor, and a block of mass m2 = 10 kg rests on top of the slab. Between block and slab, the coefficient of static friction is 0.60, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40. A horizontal force F→ of magnitude 104 N begins to pull directly on the block, as shown. In unit-vector notation, what are the resulting accelerations of (a) the block and (b) the slab?
