- 70 0• One end of a uniform meter stick is placed against a vertical wall (Fig. P70). The other end is held by a light- weight cord that makes an angle 0 with the stick. The Figure P70 coefficient of static friction between the end of the meter - x - stick and the wall is 0.40. (a) What is the maximum value the angle 0 can have if the stick is to remain in equilibrium? (b) Let the angle 0 be 15°. A block of the same weight as the meter stick is suspended from the stick, as shown, at a distance x from the wall. What is the minimum value of x for which the stick will remain in equilibrium?

The boat immediately starts to slow down due to the resistive drag force of the water on the boat. After 5 s, the boat's speed is only 6 m/s. If the drag force of the water is propor- tional to the speed of the boat, calculate how long it will take before the boat has a speed of 0.5 m/s.arrow_forward8-105.
