Since the burglar is held in equilibrium, the tension in the

vertical cable equals the burglars weight of
Now, consider the junction in the three cables:

Fy 0

T2 sin 37.0 600 N 0

T2 997 N in the inclined cable

or

Also,

Fx 0

which yields

If the hip exerts no force on the leg, the system must be

in equilibrium with the three forces shown in the freebody diagram.

Thus

Fx 0

becomes

Fy 0
From

w2 sin 220 N 110 N sin 40

When the block is on the verge of moving, the static friction force has a magnitude

.

Since equilibrium still exists and the applied force is 75 N, we have

Fx 75 N f s 0

or

In this case, the normal force is just the weight of the crate, or
coefficient of static friction is

After motion exists, the friction force is that of kinetic friction,

Since the crate moves with constant velocity when the applied force is 60 N, we find that

Applying Newtons second law:
