Force with given component parallel to the incline

The body on the 30° incline in Fig. P-009 is acted upon by a force P inclined at 20° with the
horizontal. If P is resolved into components parallel and perpendicular to incline and the value
of the parallel component is 1800 N, compute the value of the perpendicular component and
that of P.

FRICTION

What weight W is necessary to start the system of blocks shown in Fig. P-510 moving to the
right? The coefficient of friction is 0.10 and the pulleys are assumed to be frictionless.
Equilibrium of Concurrent Force System
Determine the magnitude of P and F necessary to keep the concurrent force system in Fig. P-312
in equilibrium.
