I don't even know where to start for this problem! help please!
a) Initially, static friction is sufficient to keep the hamster from moving. In this case, the hamster and the block are effectively a single 1000g mass and the scaleshould read 9.8N. Show that this is the case by treating the hamster and the block as separate objects and analyzing forces.
b) An extra fine lubricating oil having µs= µk= 0 is sprayed on the top surface of the block, causing the hamster to slide down. Friction between the block and thescale is large enough that the block does not slip on the scale. What does the scale read as the hamster slides down?

(Figure 1)shows a 250 g hamster sitting on an 750 g wedge-shaped
block. The block, in turn, rests on a spring scale. An extra-fine
lubricating oil having μs=μk=0 is sprayed on the top surface of the
block, causing the hamster to slide down. Friction between the
block and the scale is large enough that the block does
not slip on the scale.

a 150 g hamster sitting on an 840 g wedge-shaped block. The block, in turn, rests on a spring scale. a) If the hamster is able to grip the surface of the block so that he doesn't slide, then what is the reading on the spring scale? b) For the situation as described in Part A, what is the magnitude of the force on the hamster by the block? c) Suppose that, instead of the situation described in Part A,...
