- A block of concrete weighs 20 kg, it takes 40 N to start the block sliding on a concrete floor and 10 N to maintain sliding. Calculate the Static coefficiant of friction and calculate the kinetci coefficiant of friction My question is; what is the coefficiant of static and kinetic friction. Ive read throught the book and cant seem to find anything that explains it. I found a formula which reads F = Static coefficiant multiplied by the weight of the block. But that doesnt tell me exactly what the coeffciant of each is, Is it a constant? or does it vary based on the item being moved? Thank you.arrow_forward4. Explain how a distributed normal force can be represented by a point force that moves as the distribution of a normal force shifts. 5. Explain the concept of dry friction and show how to analyze the equilibrium of rigid bodies subjected to this force. (CO-5) 6. Understand the applications of frictional force analysis on wedges, screws, belts, and bearings. (CO-5)arrow_forwardThe length AB for the lug wrench shown below is 12 inches. What is the maximum force (F) that one can apply on the handles without yielding the material (Steel: Sy = 45 ksi). The diameter of the wrench is 0.625 inch. (Do not make any mistakes)arrow_forward
- Please solve this question in handwritting. Again in handwritingarrow_forwardDetermine for what least value of the pulling force P and angle θ, in the system as shown below, to cause the motion of the blocks to impend from left to right ? Assume the pulley to be smooth and coefficient of friction between the mating surfaces be 0.20. The weight of block A is 90 N while weight of block b is 60 N. OPTIONS:(MULTI CORRECT(MAY BE)): 1.Angle θ is around 6 Degrees 2.Force P is approximately 72 N 3.Angle θ is around 15 Degrees 4.Angle θ is around 11 Degrees 5.Angle θ is around 17 Degrees 6.Force P is approximately 81 N 7.Force P is approximately 102 N 8.Angle θ is around 8 Degree 9.Force P is approximately 94 Narrow_forwardThe force P applied to the brake handle enables the band brake to reduce the angular speed of a rotating drum. If the tensile strength of the band is 3800 lb, find the maximum safe value of P and the corresponding braking torque acting on the drum. Assume that the drum is rotating clockwise.arrow_forward

The coefficient of Static Friction between the rope and the cylinders is 0.3. Determine the smallest Force P that keeps the system at rest.arrow_forwardWhen stopping a car on an icy or wet road... or a dry road, for that matter... is it better to push the brake pedal hard enough to lock the wheels and make them slide? Or to push gently so that the wheels continue to roll? What is the point behind "anti-lock disk brakes"? Which coefficient of friction u, or uk is relevant to which case? (hint: start by considering the forces on different points on the wheel in each case, and calculate the largest possible deceleration for both conditions)arrow_forward
