A person with compromised pinch strength in his fingers can exert a force of only 6.0 N to either side of a pinch-held object, such as the book shown in FIGURE P6.56. What is the weight of the heaviest book he can hold vertically before it slips out of his fingers? The coefficient of static friction between his fingers and the book cover is 0.80.
π Solution Approach
Given: 6.0 N
