The problem is shown on page 12 of ^ link. It also shows the solutions. However the question asks could you hold the thing stationary. explain.
The answer is supposed to be yes.
They calculated the force to be about 159lb. This answer "yes" seems ambiguous. Why can the person hold the force stationary?
Does it depend on how much I weigh?
