An arrangement of three boxes is shown in figure below. Box A weighs 25 N and rests on an inclined plane, while box B weighs 50 N and rests on a horizontal plane. The coefficient of friction between box A and the inclined plane is 0.3, and between box B and the horizontal plane is 0.4. The pulleys are all frictionless. Determine the range of weight of box C for which no motion will occur. Consider both sliding and tipping of boxes A and B. 0.6 m 0.75 m 25 N 5 A 4 C pome 0.8 m 0.6 m 50 N B 1.2 m
In the old-fashioned printing press of Fig. square-threaded screw is used to press the paper against the type bed. The single-threaded screw has a mean radius of 20 mm and a lead of 100 mm. The coefficient of friction is 0.15, and the clamping force necessary to guarantee clear printing on all parts of the paper is 400 N. Determine the twisting moment necessary to operate the press and whether or not a moment must be applied to release the press. P

Question 3(a) The non uniform XYZ bar which weighs 155 kg has its centre of gravity G at a distance 4 m from X. This bar rests on a homogeneous crate P. The static coefficient of friction between the bar and the crate is 0.31 while the same between the crate and the floor is 0.22. Determine the mass of the lightest crate P (in kilograms) that can be used to support this non uniform bar in the position shown in Figure 3.
