A tower is observed from two different places \(A\) and \(B\). The direct distance between \(A\) and \(B\) is \(65\, \mathrm{m}\). If we denote the bottom of the tower by \(C\), we get a triangle \(ABC\) in which the measure of \(\measuredangle CAB \) is \(71^{\circ }\) and the measure of \(\measuredangle ABC \) is \( 34^{\circ }\). From the point \(A\) the angle of elevation of the top of the tower is \(40^{\circ }18'\). Find the height of the tower. Suppose that all \(A\), \(B\) and \(C\) are in the same height above sea level and round your answers to nearest meters.

The box is on the slope as in the picture. The angle of the slope is \(\alpha \). The forces acting on the box are the force of gravity \(\vec{F_{G}}\) and the friction \(\vec{F_{t}}\). The force of gravity can be replaced by two components \(\vec{F_{1}}\) and \(\vec{F_{n}}\). (The force \(\vec{F_{1}}\) is parallel to the slope and \(\vec{F_{n}}\) is perpendicular to the slope.) The friction \(F_{t}\) is given by the formula \(F_{t} = fF_{n}\), where \(f\) is the coefficient of the friction.What is the influence of the increasing angle \(\alpha \) on the forces acting on the box?
