The figure models the action of the upper body. Forces W, and W2 represent the weight of the head and torso of a person, where in this case W, = W2 = W. The force, W, acts half way along the upper rod at E and W, acts at the end of the rod at B. The line is attached 3/4 of the way up the rod at D. Where the tension in the line C-D is 2590 N in order to maintain this position, what is the force, W? %3! 10 25°

The board sandwiched between two other boards in Figure P5.97 weighs 95.5 N. If the coefficient of static friction between the boards is 0.663, what must be the magnitude of the compression forces (assumed horizontal) acting on both sides of the center board to keep it from slipping?
Measuring coefficients of friction A coin is placed near one edge of a book lying on a table, and that edge of the book is lifted until the coin just slips down the incline as shown in Figure P4.82. The angle of the incline, C, called the critical angle, is measured. (a) Draw a free-body diagram for the coin when it is on the verge of slipping and identify all forces acting on it. Your free-body diagram should include a force of static friction acting up the incline. (b) Is the magnitude of the friction force equal to sn for angles less than C? Explain. What can you definitely say about the magnitude of the friction force for any angle c? (c) Show that the coefficient of static friction is given by s = tan c. (d) Once the coin starts to slide down the incline, the angle can be adjusted to a new value c c such that the coin moves down the incline with constant speed. How does observation enable you to obtain the coefficient of kinetic friction? Figure P4.82
The figure below shows a bird feeder that weighs 177.7 N. The feeder is supported by a vertical wire, which is in turn tied to two wires, each of which is attached to a horizontal support. The left wire makes a 60° angle with the support, while the right wire makes a 30° angle. What is the tension in each wire (in N)? left wire= ? N right wire= ?N bottom wire= ?N
The two blocks (m =16 kg, M =88 kg) in Fig. are not attached to each other.

A 58 kg circus performer hangs from a bar suspended from a ceiling as shown in the figure. If the bar masses 12 kg (and its weight acts at its center) and has a length of1.4 m, what is the tension T2 in the rope? (The rope is attached 0.85 m along the bar).
A block of volume 600 × 10-6 m3 is held by a string at rest in honey as shown. ρblock = 7401 kg/m3, ρhoney = 1400 kg/m3, and g = 10.0 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the tension force on the block, in Newtons? Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. (No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.)
The two blocks (m = 13 kg and M = 90 kg) in the figure are not attached to each other. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is μs = 0.44, but the surface beneath the larger block is frictionless.

Two masses mA =9.3kg and mB=6.1kg are on inclines and are connected together by a string as shown in the figure. The angles theta subscript A=700 and theta subscript B = 360 . In the absence of the friction, the force F is required to pull the masses at a constant velocity up the fixed inclines. The force F is now removed. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the two blocks? Take g =9.81 m/s2, and express your answer using two decimal places.
Four pets named Arjay, Baguilat, Cuh-ing, and Dabest play a pulling game with a rope as shown below. Arjay pulls strongly with 610.0 units of force (N). Baguilat pulls with a force of magnitude B = 200.0 N, and Cuh-ing pulls with aforce of magnitude C = 140.0 N. When Dabest pulls on the rope in such a way that his force balances out the resultantof the other three forces, the rope does not move in any direction. With how much force and in what direction mustDabest pull on the rope for the situation to happen? I need help in figuring out is the magnitude of Dabest's pulling force? the direction(use method 1: zero-degree reference line) of Dabest's pulling force and What is the direction(use method 2: geographical direction) of Dabest's pulling force?
