You probably think of wet surfaces as being slippery. Surprisingly, the opposite is true for human skin, as you can demonstrate by sliding a dry versus a slightly damp fingertip along a smooth surface such as a desktop. Researchers have found that the static coefficient of friction between dry skin and steel is 0.27, while that between damp skin and steel can be as high as 1.4. Suppose a man holds a steel rod vertically in his hand, exerting a 400 N grip force on the rod. A. What is the heaviest rod he can hold without slipping if His hands are dry?b)What is the heaviest rod he can hold without slipping if his hands are wet?

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? i really need . i made an attempt but i just cant get it. a metal rod is 25.000 cm long at 25.0 degrees celsius. when heated to 102.0 degrees celsius, it is 25.054 cm long. what is the coefficient of linear expansion for this metal.

With the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 1.90
