Problem #3 In the figure below a 3.00 kg block is being pushed up against a wall by a force P→ at an angle of θ = 50.0∘ with respect to the horizontal as shown. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the wall is given as 0.250 . (a) What are the possible values of ∥P→∥ that allow the block to remain stationary? (b) Explain what happens to the block if ∥P→∥ takes smaller or larger values. (c) Repeat the two previous parts, assuming that θ = 13.0∘.

The weight of the block in the drawing is 62.0 N. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the vertical wall is 0.550. (a) What minimum magnitude of the force F→ is required to prevent the block from sliding down the wall? (Hint: The static frictional force exerted by the block is directed upward, parallel to the wall.) (b) What minimum force is required to start the block moving up the wall? (Hint: The static frictional force is now directed down the wall.) (a) Number Units N (b) Number Units
