A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the

roof as shown in the figure below. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in
equilibrium. The mass of the sign is 27.5 kg, and the mass of the potted plant is 67.5 kg.

(a) Assuming the objects are in equilibrium, determine the magnitude of the static friction force experienced by the
potted plant.
N
(b) What is the maximum value of the static friction force if the coefficient of static friction between the pot and the
roof is 0.707?
N

Answer:I know the answer for B cus I’m doing the same problem. For B, you would only take the coefficient of friction given and then multiply it by the Normal Force, which in this case is the same as the Gravitational Force.
