Answer #1

a) Force= F=mgcos\theta=67.5(10)cos13.3                     " mgsin\theta will be the component of gravity whcin is balanced by

           =656.8N                                                                            frictional force."

b)     F= 67.5(10)cos30=584N                 The force is changed by 72.8N

c)      The normal force on one foot will be equal to = mgcos\theta=656.8N for part a) and 584N for part b)

                  For two feet Newtons second law of motion could be written

                    mgcos\theta-Fn-Fn=m(0)

                    mgcos\theta=2Fn

                      Fn= mgcos\theta/ 2

                        Fn= 686.8/2

                            =343.4N

                         This will be the normal force when he is standing on both feets.

In case of 30 degree angle put the value of cos30 in above formula.
