**28. A man drags a 72-kg crate across the floor at a constant velocity by pull- ing on a strap attached to the bottom of the crate. The crate is tilted 25° above 0.90 m the horizontal, and the strap is inclined 61% 61° above the horizontal. The center of gravity of the crate coincides with its 0.40 m geometrical center, as indicated in the drawing. Find the magnitude of the tension in the strap. 25°

Two builders carry a sheet of drywall up a ramp. Assume that W = 1.9 m, L = 3.3 m, theta = 19.0⁰, and that the lead builder carries a weight of 109.0 N (24.5 lb). L- Ө What is the weight carried by the builder at the rear? HINT: Consider the drywall to have no thickness. The builder at the rear gets tired and suggests that the drywall should be held by its narrow side. ~W~ 0 What is the weight he must now carry? HINT: From the previous problem, you know how much each builder carries. Therefore you know the total weight. Set the sum of the torques about the front lower corner to 0, so that you do not need to know the weight carried by the builder in front.
