W 20° P 200 mm A 45 mm 50 mm A block placed under the head of the claw hammer, as shown, greatly facilitates the extraction of the nail. If a force 76.5 N pull on the handle is required to pull the nail with a tension W= 800 N, calculate the magnitude of the resulting force at A, where contacting surfaces are sufficiently rough to prevent slipping. Give your answer in Newtons.

In order to get his car out of the mud, a man ties one end of a rope to the front bumper and the other end to a tee 15 m away as shown below. He then pulls on the center of the rope with a force of 400 N, which causes its center to be displaced 0.30 m, as shown. What is the force of the rope on the car?
Find the magnitude of the tension in each supporting cable shown below. In each case, the weight of the suspended body is 100.0 N and the masses of the cables are negligible.
One end of a uniform 4.00-m-long rod of weight Fg is supported by a cable at an angle of = 37 with the rod. The other end rests against the wall, where it is held by friction as shown in Figure P12.23. The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the rod is s= 0.500. Determine tile minimum distance x from point A at which an additional object, also with the same weight Fg can be hung without causing the rod to slip at point A.
