Question
A 30-lb crate of eggs rests on the seat of a truck. The seat may be represented as a straight line at a 5 degree slope. Note that the coefficient of friction between the crate and the seat is 0.70. If the driver of the truck forced to suddenly apply the brakes, what will be the maximum deceleration will cause the crate to slide on the seat?

- The uniform 52-kg slender bar is initially at rest on a smooth horizontal plane when the forces are applied. If P₁ = 20 N and P₂ = 86 N, they are constant and are always perpendicular to the slender bar, determine angle (in degree) when time t = 0.40 s has passed. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Your answer must include 2 places after the decimal point. 0.75 m P₁ Your Answer: Answer 1.75 m 0.5 m P₂arrow_forward1 Problem During a particularly snowy winter in Charlotte, a child of mass m slides down a ramp starting at rest from point A and encounters the melted grassy area at B before coming to a full stop at C. Assume the ice is frictionless. The height of point A is hĄ and the distance between B and C is L. What is the coefficient of friction of the grass, k?

- A 10-kg cabinet is mounted on casters that slides with a coefficient of friction of 0.2 (neglect the mass of casters) on the floor. If a 100-N horizontal force is applied at the centroid, determine (a)find the range of values of h if the cabinet will not tip over (b) the acceleration of the cabinet if it will not tip over(c) what is the reaction at the casters?arrow_forwardSee attachedarrow_forwardConsider the situation shown where a 15-kg box is to be held on a steep vertical slope by a cord that can withstand 80 N. Will the box be held or will the cord snap (i.e. exceed 80 N)? The coefficient of static friction between the box and slope is 0.3. Note: more sophisticated methods exist but do a simple analysis using statics alone and a little reasoning. 60arrow_forward
