Awoman holds a book by placing it between her hands such that she presses at right angles to the front and back covers. the book has a mass of m = 1.8 kg and the coefficient of static friction between her hand and the book is μs = 0.67. no attempt 50% part (a) what is the weight of the book, fgb in newtons?

Aheavy piece of hanging sculpture is suspended by a90-cm-long, 5.0 g steel wire. when the wind blows hard, the wire hums at its fundamental frequency of 80hz. what is the mass of the sculpture?

16. a brave but inadequate rugby player is being pushed backward by an opposing player who is exerting a force of 800 n on him. the mass of the losing player plus equipment is 90.0 kg, and he is accelerating at 1.20m/s2 size 12{1 "." "20"" m/s" rsup { size 8{2} } } {} backward. (a) what is the force of friction between the losing player’s feet and the grass? (b) what force does the winning player exert on the ground to move forward if his mass plus equipment is 110 kg? (c) draw a sketch of the situation showing the system of interest used to solve each part. for this situation, draw a free-body diagram and write the net force equation.
