Homework Statement
A prism has a mass of m = 80 g, and you wish to lift it, touching
the upper two faces only. If the coecient of friction between the prism’s surface and
your skin is = 0:4, what is the minimum force that must be applied to each face?
Homework Equations
F=μR
The Attempt at a Solution
I drew the forces perpendicular to the two surfaces. I don't really know how to resolve them, and how F=μR comes into it.
