Question
On a trolley weighing WT = (306.1725) N, a crate with
Wc = (612.345) N is being transported along a smooth
concrete floor. The width of the crate is
b = (513.7166667) mm and its height is
d = (1617.635714) mm
The coefficients of friction between the crate and the trolley
are us= (0.270575) and uk = (0.2137166667).
If a force P = (402.469) N is applied at the handle of the
trolley, determine whether the crate will SLIP or TIP first.
NOTE: draw the FBD and the KD
