Question 1 1.5 pts A 56 kg rock climber has positioned himself as shown in the figure (with his hands on one side of a gap and his feet on the other side). Both friction and normal forces act on his hands and feet. The width of the gap, w, is 0.30 m and the climber's center of mass is a horizontal distance d = 0.37 m from the gap. The coefficient of static friction Mi = 0.45 between his...
A 60 kg rock climber has positioned himself as shown in the figure (with his hands on one side of a gap and his feet on the other side). Both friction and normal forces act on his hands and feet. The width of the gap, w, is 0.24 m and the climber's center of mass is a horizontal distance d 0.54 m from the gap. The coefficient of static friction = 0.48 between his hands and the rock and 2...
draw a free body diagram In the figure a 52 kg rock climber is in a lie-back climb along a fissure, with hands pulling on one side of the fissure and feet pressed against the opposite side. The fissure has width W = 0.30 m, and the center of mass of the climber is a horizontal distance d = 0.50 m from the fissure. The coefficient of static friction between hands and rock is M1 = 0.45, and between boots...
Consider the 61.0 kg mountain climber in the figure below. re V (5) Find the tension in the rope and the force that the mountain climber must exert with her feet on the vertical rock face to remain stationary (In N). Assume that the force is exerted parallel to her legs. Also, assume negligible force exerted by her arms. tension in rope force on feet N (b) What is the minimum coefficient of friction between her shoes and the ci
6. A 90 kg gymnast wedges himself between two closely spaced vertical walls by pressing his hands and feet against the walls. What is the minimum force the gymnast must push with each hand and foot if the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.64 and the coefficient of static friction is 0.78? Assume the force on each hand and foot are all equal.
A 75 kg climber finds himself dangling over the edge of an ice cliff, as shown in the figure below. Fortunately, he's roped to a 940 kg rock located 51 m from the edge of the cliff. Assume that the coefficient of kinetic friction between rock and ice is 5.4×10−2. What is his acceleration, and how much time does he have before the rock goes over the edge? Neglect the rope's mass. Part A: What is his acceleration? Part B:...
