Question: The block shown in ( Figure 1 ) has a mass of mm = 5 0 kgkg , a height HH = 1 . 3

The block shown in (Figure 1) has a mass of mm =50 kgkg , a height HH =1.3 mm , and width LL =2 mm . It is resting on a ramp that makes an angle =39 with the horizontal. A force PP is applied parallel to the surface of the ramp at the top of the block. What is the maximum force that can be applied without causing the block to move? The coefficient of static friction is ss =0.45, and the center of mass of the block is at the center of the rectangle.

There are two ways the block can move: by slipping up the ramp or by tipping over. First consider the block slipping up the ramp. What is the magnitude of the normal force between the block and the ramp?
Express your answer to three significant figures with appropriate units.

Now consider the case of impending tipping. Where do the normal force and friction force act in this case?
At the point directly below the center of gravity of the block.At the edge of the block closest to the bottom of the ramp.At the edge of the block closest to the top of the ramp.At an unknown point along the bottom edge of the block.At the midpoint of the bottom edge of the block.
