1. The crate is being pulled by the man as shown. Given that the
coefficient of the horizontal surface and the 750-lb crate is 0.35,
find the pulling force on the rope the man should apply to put
the crate in impending motion
Answer: F = _____________
2. Determine the weight of block B for the 250N block A not to slide
down in the inclined plane. Given that the coefficient of static B
A Smooth
friction in the 45° inclined plane is 0.25 and in the 30° inclined surface
plane is 0.3. (Assume frictionless pulley)
45° 30°
Answer: WB = _____________
3. The uniform 20-lb ladder rests on the rough floor for
which the coefficient of static friction is s = 0.45 and
against the smooth wall at B. Determine the horizontal
force P the man must exert on the ladder in order to
cause it to move.
Answer: P = _____________
Answer: F = _____________
