Considering the two scenarios below. Calculate the man's height if the center of gravity of the man's body is in the same level with the top of the table. Assume that the height of the center of gravity from ground is 57% of the man's standing height. Express your answer in feet and inches. x'y".
11. Situation 4 - A block of wood 0.6 m x 0.6 m x “h” meters in dimension was thrown into the water, it floats with 0.18 m projecting above the water surface. The same block was thrown into a container of a liquid having a SG of 0.90 and it floats with 0.14 m. projecting above the liquid surface. Determine the specific gravity of the block. Round off to three decimal places.

Scenario:
A chair with a mass of 20.0 kg is attached to one end of a frictionless pulley system via a strong massless rope. The other end of the rope is attached to a steel water tank sitting on a flat horizontal concrete surface (see the image to the right). The coefficient of static friction between steel and concrete is 0.45 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the surfaces is 0.30. The water tank, which is full of water, has sprung a leak. The combined mass of the water and the tank is 500 kg. This mass slowly decreases as the water leaks from the hole. You (i.e. my mass is 55.7 KG) are sitting at rest in the seat. You and the seat will remain at rest as long as the force of static friction is strong enough to hold you.
Task:
LET [DOWN] and [RIGHT] be positive. Using your knowledge of physics, determine the following:
1. As soon as the chair begins to move, static friction between the steel…
