A person (40 kg) is managing to be at rest between two verticle walls by pressing one wall A by hi hands and feet and the other wall B by his back figure. Assume that the friction coefficient between his body and the walls is 0.8 and that limiting friction acts at all the contacts. a. show that the person pushes the two walls with equal force. b. find the normal force exerted by either wall on the person Take `g=10 m/s^2`.

A rock-climber (49 kg) is managing to be at rest between two vertical rocks pressing one rock A by his feet and the other B by his back . If the coefficient of friction between his shoes and wall is A 1.2 while between his back and wall B is 0.8 and limiting friction acts at all the contacts , then : (a) What is his push against the rock ? (b) What percent of the weight is supported by the frictional force an legs ?
