Question:

A piece of wood with mass m = 2.4 kg is held in a vise sandwiched between two wooden jaws as shown in Figure P4.68. A blow from a hammer drives a nail that exerts a force of 450 N on the wood. If the coefficient of static friction between the wood surfaces is 0.67, what minimum normal force must each jaw of the vise exert on the wood block to hold the block in place?
