Name: A 15^∘ wedge is forced into a saw cut to prevent binding of the circular saw. The coefficient of static friction between the wedge and the wood is 0.25 . Knowing that a horizontal force P with a magnitude of 30 lb was required to insert the wedge, determine the magnitude of the forces exerted on the board by the wedge after insertion.
