A horizontal force of \(110 \, \text{N}\) is applied to a \(12 \, \text{kg}\) object, moving it \(6 \, \text{m}\) on a horizontal surface where the kinetic friction coefficient is \(\mu_k = 0.25\). The object then slides up a \(17^\circ\) inclined plane. Assuming the \(110 \, \text{N}\) force is no longer acting on the incline, and the coefficient of kinetic friction there is \(\mu_k = 0.45\), calculate the distance the object will slide on the incline.

A massless rigid rod of length [katex]3d[/katex] is pivoted at a fixed point [katex]W[/katex], and two forces each of magnitude [katex]F[/katex] are applied vertically upward as shown above. A third vertical force of magnitude [katex]F[/katex] may be applied, either upward or downward, at one of the labeled points. With the proper choice of direction at each point, the rod can be in equilibrium if the third force of magnitude [katex]F[/katex] is applied at point?
