Mary pushes a crate by applying force of 18 newtons. Unable to push it alone, she gets help from her friend, Anne. Together they

apply a force of 43 newtons, and the crate just starts moving. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.11, what is the value of the normal force?

 <span>This problem is relatively simple, in order to solve this problem the only formula you need to know is the formula for friction, which is: 

Ff = UsN 

where Us is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force. 

In order to get the crate moving you must first apply enough force to overcome the static friction: 

Fapplied = Ff 

Since Fapplied = 43 Newtons: 

Fapplied = Ff = 43 = UsN 

and it was given that Us = 0.11, so all you have to do is isolate N by dividing both sides by 0.11 

43/0.11 = N = 390.9 which is approximately 391 or C. 3.9x10^2</span>

PART A)

Here by force balance along Y direction

Tsin45  + F_y = 500 + 200

Force balance along X direction

Tcos45 = F_x

now by torque balance

Tsin45 (6) = 500 (2.5) + 200 (3)

T(4.24) = 1250 + 600

T = 436.3 N

PART B)

now from above equations

Tsin45 + F_y = 700

F_y = 391.5 N

F_x = Tcos45 = 308.5 N

now net reaction force of wall is given as

F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}

F = 498.4 N

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

c. A number and a unit

Explanation:

A scalar is a real number. We often use the term scalar in the context of vectors or matrices, to stress that a variable such as a is just a real number and not a vector or matrix.
