When a person stands on tiptoe (a strenuous position), the position of the foot is as shown in Figure P8.24a. The total gravitational force on the body, F, is supported by the force n exerted by the floor on the toes of one foot. A mechanical model of the situation is shown in Figure P8.24b, where T is the force exerted by the Achilles tendon on the foot and R is the force exerted by the tibia on the foot. Find the values of T, R, and 0 when F, = n = 700. N. -Achilles tendon Tibia 15.0° 18.0 cm 25.0 cm Figure P8.24

A 1.5 kg block is connected by a rope across a 50-cm-diameter, 2.0 kg pulley, as shown. There is no friction in the axle, but there is friction between the rope and the pulley; the rope doesn’t slip. The weight is accelerating upward at 1.2 m/s2. What is the tension in the rope on the right side of the pulley?

A ladder leans against a wall 5 meters above the ground so a homeowner can clear his gutters of leaves from last fall. The bottom of the ladder just begins to slip when it is 1.7 meters from the wall. What is the coefficient of static friction between the bottom of the ladder and the ground?
It is sometimes important to determine the location of a person’s center of gravity(which coincides with the center of mass because the gravitational force is uniform at the scale of the human body). This can be done with the arrangement shown intheFigure below. A light (negligible mass) plank rests on two scales that read Fg1=380 N and Fg2=320 N. The scales are separated by a distance of 2.00 m. How far from the woman’s feet is her center of gravity?
