QuestionP•CWThe man in the diagram is trying to move a large box by pushing on it with a force, P. The boxweighs W = 250 N and its centre of gravity is located in the centre of the box (point C).Given:The coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor is μs = 0.3Dimensions: a = 1.8m, b=0.6m, h= 0.9 mWe want to know whether the box will move if P = 70 N.Scenario: Box remains stationaryFirst, let us consider the case of the box remaining stationary.Calculate the Friction force and Normal force under this condition.Then consider, how far from the centre line of the box does thenormal force act.a. First, calculate the magnitude of the friction force (betweenbox and floor) generated under Scenario.b. Calculate the magnitude of the normal force acting under thebox.c. Calculate the location of the normal force - find its horizontaldistance from box centre line.

The coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor is, dimension of the box, weight of…

When you lift an object by moving only your forearm, the main lifting muscle in your arm is the biceps. Suppose the mass of a forearm is 1.10 kg . If the biceps is connected to the forearm a distance dbicepsdbicepsd_biceps = 2.50 cm from the elbow, how much force Fbiceps must the biceps exert to hold a 750 g ball at the end of the forearm at distance dball = 32.0 cm from the elbow, with the forearm parallel to the floor? Although it is uncommon, orthopedic surgeons have seen patients who have torn their biceps tendon when forces of greater than 390 N have been exerted on the tendon with the arm bent at the elbow so that the forearm is parallel to the ground. What is the minimum mass of a ball Mball such a patient might have held to cause the biceps tendon to tear?
A 0.50-kg ball that is tied to the end ofa 1.5-m light cord is revolved in a horizontalplane, with the cord making a 30°angle with the vertical. (See Fig. P7.75.)(a) Determine the ball’s speed. (b) If,instead, the ball is revolved so that itsspeed is 4.0 m/s, what angle does thecord make with the vertical? (c) If thecord can withstand a maximum tensionof 9.8 N, what is the highest speed atwhich the ball can move?
Bi-Section Method) Use the graphical approach to determine the mass of the bungee jumper with a drag coefficient of 0.25kg/m to have a velocity of 36m/s after four seconds of free fall. Note: The acceleration of gravity is 9.81m/s2 . Use the MATLAB code and give the results. Note that, we should follow the same procedure given in page119 in the textbook eqaution (PT2.4).

A 70 kg box is resting on a reclining floor. The coefficient of fricion between the floor and the box is: static = 0.30, kinetic 0.10. If the floor is to be inclined, what would be the minimum angle of inclination needed so that the box will start to slide down? Express your answer in unit of degrees.

Calculate the horizontal force P on the light 11° wedge necessary to initiate movement of the 39-kg cylinder. The coefficient of static friction for both pairs of contacting surfaces is 0.23. Also determine the friction force FB at point B. (Caution: Check carefully your assumption of where slipping occurs.)
In order to lift a shovelful of dirt, a gardener pushes downward on the end of the shovel and pulls upward at distance l2 from the end, as shown below. The weight of the shovel is m g → and acts at the point of application of F →2. Calculate the magnitudes of the forces F →1 and F →2 as functions of l1, l2, mg, and the weight W of the load. Why do your answers not depend on the angle θ that the shovel makes with the horizontal?
A solid cylinder of m rests on two planks. A string is wound on the cylinder. The hanging end of string is pulled down with a constant force F.

What is the acceleration of the axis of the cylinder rolling down the planks? [I cylinder = mR2/2]
A stunt woman (m= 67.0 kg) on a movie set is getting readyto jump off a building. She is wearing a harness that is at-tached to a hydraulic brake system that will allow her to freefall for 6.1 m and then will apply a smooth, constant force tobring her to a stop in 2.1 m. How much force should the brakesystem apply to achieve this? Initial Equation(s)- Algebra Work- Units Check- Numerical Answer-
