QUESTION:

Two friends are carrying a \(200-\mathrm{kg}\) crate up a flight of stairs. The crate is

\(1.25 \mathrm{~m}\) \(long and 0.500 \mathrm{~m}\) high, and its center of gravity is at its center. The stairs make a \(45.0^{\circ}\) angle with respect to the floor. The crate also is carried at a \(45.0^{\circ}\) angle, so that its bottom side is parallel to the slope of the stairs (Fig. P11.67). If the force each person applies is vertical, what is the magnitude of each of these forces? Is it better to be the person above or below on the stairs?
