Chapter 4, Problem 33(choose chapter or problem)
What force is exerted on the tooth in Figure \(4.38\) if the tension in the wire is \(25.0 \mathrm{~N}\)? Note that the force applied to the tooth is smaller than the tension in the wire, but this is necessitated by practical considerations of how force can be applied in the mouth. Explicitly show how you follow steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy for Newton’s laws of motion.
Figure \(4.38\) Braces are used to apply forces to teeth to realign them. Shown in this figure are the tensions applied by the wire to the protruding tooth. The total force applied to the tooth by the wire, \(\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{app}}\) , points straight toward the back of the mouth.
