5. A body weighing 150 lb rests on an inclined plane forming an angle of 30° with the horizontal. A horizontal force P is applied to the body, as shown. The coefficient of static friction between the body and the plane is 0.30. Determine the force P that will cause impending motion a) up the inclined plane. b) down the inclined plane.

Jeff was just hired by GSI, Inc. to be their Environmental and Safety Coordinator.  This is Jeff's first position after completing his engineering degree.  He had taken a course in safety engineering as part of his studies and felt confident that he could handle the job. Management at GSI, Inc. has assured him that they are committed to maintaining a safe workplace.  They have never had an individual dedicated to this task full-time.  They will implement his recommendations if he can justify them. As Jeff begins to get familiar with the operations, he spends considerable time on the production floor.  He notices workers clean their tools before break with a liquid from an unmarked 55-gallon drum.  They also use this liquid to clean residue from their skin.  They use paper towels to dry their tools and hands, throw these towels in the trash, and head to the break room for a snack and/or smoke.

As an engineer responsible for monitoring works in the area of ​​mechanical systems, you must evaluate the following situation: a large client in the retail area has a refrigeration system where it stores some chilled or frozen products to be sold on the sales floor.Recently, the customer's maintenance department has been questioning the system's performance and requested an evaluation of the system's behavior. You went to the location and requested some information from the maintenance manager about the system, who provided the following data: - The system operates with R-134a refrigerant;- The refrigerated environment is maintained at 0°C and the external environment at 26°C;- The refrigerant flow rate in the system is 0.08 kg/s; In addition to the data provided, you carried out some tests and measured the temperature of the refrigerant fluid at some specific points in the system, such as the compressor inlet and condenser outlet, finding values ​​of 0°C and 26°C respectively.…
