The person in the drawing is standing on crutches. Assume that the force exerted on each crutch by the ground is directed along the crutch, as the force vectors in the drawing indicate. If the coefficient of static friction between a crutch and the ground is 0.944, determine the largest angle MAX that the crutch can have just before it begins to slip on the floor.

Pushing a Chair along the Floor Part A - Normal force exerted on the chair by the floor Learning Goal: To understand the role of friction in a state of equilibrium. A chair weighing 150 N rests on a level floor that is not frictionless. A man pushes on the chair with a force F = 42.0 N that is directed at an angle of 36.0 with the horizontal.(Figure 1) Assume that the chair is stationary but is on the...

What is the minimum possible value of the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor? 2. A horse is hamessed to a sled having a mass of 236 kg, including supplies. The horse must exert a force exceeding 1.240 N at an angle...
12.2) What is the smallest horizontal force, P, that the person must exert on the top box to initiate motion (slip or tip). Each box weighs 125 lb. The coefficient of static friction between the boxes is 0.5 and the coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor is 0.35.
(1) A 4m ladder has mass m= 10 kg. We assume that its centre of mass is half-way along its length. The ladder is leaning against a wall at an angle of 30° from the vertical, as shown in the figure. Suppose that the wall is frictionless smooth and slippery), and that the coefficient of static friction between the feet of the ladder and the floor is H. =0.6. Take the acceleration due to gravity to be g=10m/s" directed vertically...
13. A 70.0kg person is climbing a 10.0kg ladder of length 3.00m which is leaning against a wall o as shown. The wall is frictionless but there is (fortunately) friction with at an angle of 70.0 the ground. Find the force exerted by the wall on the ladder, force of friction with the groun and the normal force from the ground when the person is (a) at the bottom of the ladder, (b) halfway up, and (c) at the top...
A uniform ladder of mass 23kg and length 3.8m leans against a wall at an angle of 65° above the horizontal. The wall is a frictionless surface.
