ignore the "a 65 kg box..." i just stress myself out to a point where i can't think staight. Can someone explain the spiderman problem to me?
The discussion focuses on solving the "Spiderman Problem" using trigonometry and force analysis. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding the normal force and the gravitational pull acting on the box. Key techniques include breaking down forces into vertical components and utilizing Free Body Diagrams (FBD) to visualize the problem. The conversation highlights that minimal calculations are required, primarily focusing on the relationship between applied forces and gravitational forces.
PREREQUISITESStudents studying physics, educators teaching mechanics, and anyone interested in applying trigonometry to real-world force problems.
Bdurb said:See, i am almost certain there are very little if any calculations. Basically what is happening to the normal force with "spiderman" applying directional force. It all depends on the amount of force applied by spiderman and the gravitational pull on the box itself correct?
