2) A student’s head is bent over her physics book. The head weighs P = 24.6 N and is supported by the muscle force F→mF→m exerted by the neck extensor muscles and by the contact force F→cF→c exerted at the atlantooccipital joint. Given that the magnitude of F→mF→m is 60.0 N and is directed 35.0° below the horizontal.
a.) Find the magnitude of the contact force F→cF→c .
b.)Find the direction of the contact force Fc−→Fc→ . If the direction is below the horizontal, enter a negative value.
A 1.50×103 kg car, whose front is facing to the right (towards +x-axis) and whose engine is turned off and in neutral, is held at rest on a frictionless ramp using a cable whose one end is attached to the car’s front at an angle 27.0◦ with respect to the ramp’s surface. The other end of the cable is attached to a wall perpendicular to the horizontal and the ramp is raised 30.0◦ above the horizontal.
a. Find the force exerted by the ramp on the car’s wheels.

The other end of the cable is attached to a wall perpendicular to the horizontal and the ramp is raised 30.0◦ above the horizontal.
c. Suppose the wall where the other end of the cable was attached was replaced by a rotating motor. If the car is now accelerating towards the peak of the ramp at 3.00 m/s2 due to the rotating motor, how much tension is being exerted by the cable on the car?
