Two molds of mass, the first m1 = 1.0 and the second, m2 = 2.0 kg, touch each other on a horizontal table, and the friction between the two molds and the table was negligible. The force of F was applied to m1, causing the two molds to accelerate to the right with an acceleration of a = 3.0. What is the magnitude of the force F and what is the value of the compressive forces between the two molds?

A hiker who has broken his forearm rigs a temporary sling using a cordstretching from his shoulder to his hand. The cord holds the forearmlevel and makes an angle of 40.0° with the horizontal where it attachesto the hand. Considering the forearm and hand to be uniform, with atotal mass of 1.30 kg and a length of 0.300 m, find (a) the tension inthe cord and (b) the horizontal and vertical components of the force, f>,exerted by the humerus (the bone of the upper arm) on the radius andulna (the bones of the forearm).
The board sandwiched between two other boards in Figure P4.77 weighs 95.5 N. If the coefficient of friction between the boards is 0.663, what must be the magnitude of the compression forces (assumed to be horizontal) acting on both sides of the center board to keep it from slipping?

The two blocks are connected together with a weighted rope as in shape.Please find the magnitude of the T strain force and the system's acceleration, since the coefficient of friction between F=40N, m1=10kg, m2=15kg, and surface and m2 mass block is Fs=0.2.(g=9,8m/sn^2)
Find the tension T in the deltoid muscle. Using the conditions for static equilibrium, find the magnitude of the vertical component of the force Fy exerted by the scapula on the humerus (where the humerus attaches to the rest of the body). Now find the magnitude of the horizontal component of the force Fx exerted by the scapula on the humerus.
A small box of mass m1 is sitting on a board of mass m2 and length L. Thecoefficient of kinetic friction between the board and the horizontal floor is μk . The coefficient ofstatic friction between the board and the box is μs.At this moment, the board slides to the right along the surface, while the box does not slide onthe board. What is the maximum magnitude of the force F pulling the board so that the boxdoes not slip on the board? THE ANSWER IS =(?? + ??)(?1 + ?2)?

In a skyscraper, an elevator is suspended from three equal, parallel 300-m-long steel cables, each Of diameter 1.0 cm. How much do these cables stretch if the mass of the elevator is 1000 kg?
A farmer making grape juice fills a glass bottle to the brim and caps it tightly. The juice expands more than the glass when it warms up, in such a way that the volume increases by 0.2% (that is, ΔV/V0 =2×10−3) relative to the space available. Calculate the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the juice per square centimeter if its bulk modulus is 1.8×109 N/m2, assuming the bottle does not break. In view of your answer, do you think the bottle will survive?
