A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible? FIGURE P6.10 Problems 10 and 11.
An engineer wants to design a circular racetrack of radius r such that cars of mass m can go around the track at speed V without the aid of friction or other forces other than the perpendicular contact force from the track surface. Find an expression for the required banking angle θ of the track, measured from the horizontal. Express the answer in terms of m, r, V, and g. Suppose the race cars actually round the track at a speed w>V. What additional radial force Fr is required to keep the cars on the track at this speed? Express the answer in terms of m, r, V, w, and g.
In the figure, a rectangular slab of slate rests on a bedrock surface inclined at angle θ = 28.4°. The slab has length L = 32.4 m, thickness T = 5.92 m, and width W = 14.3 m, and 1.0 cm3 of it has a mass of 3.2 g. The coefficient of static friction between slab and bedrock is 0.385. (a) Calculate the component of the gravitational force on the slab parallel to the bedrock surface. (b) Calculate the magnitude of the static frictional force on the slab. By comparing (a) and (b), you can see that the slab is in danger of sliding. This is prevented only by chance protrusions of bedrock. (c) To stabilize the slab, bolts are to be driven perpendicular to the bedrock surface (two bolts are shown). If each bolt has a cross-sectional area of 6.05 cm2 and will snap under a shearing stress of 3.34 × 108 N/m2, what is the minimum number of bolts needed? Assume that the bolts do not affect the normal force.
In the very Dutch sport of Fierljeppen, athletes run up to a long pole and then use it to vault across a canal as shown in (Figure 1).

Express your answer with the appropriate units.
