a) If the beam AD is loaded as shown in Figure Q4(a), determine the horizontal force P which must be applied to the wedge in order to remove it from under the beam. The coefficients of static friction at the wedge's top and bottom surfaces are ucA = 0.25 and HCB = 0.35, respectively. If P = 0, is the wedge self-locking? Neglect the weight and size of the wedge and the thickness of the beam.
