A sailor stands on the deck of her ship, facing the bow. Her feetare a distance b apart, and her center of mass is a distance habove the deck, midway between her two feet. Her weight is W. Theship is listing an angle phi to her left.
a. assuming she does not slide, find the vertical components of theforces acting from the deck on her left and right foot, F(L) andF(R) respectively, as functions of b, h, W and the angle phi.
b. Give expressions for F(L) and F(R) in terms of W when phi is atthe critical angle.
