- A 1.5 kg block resting ina rough flat surface is pulled by a string. The string makes an angle of 20 degress with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the blodk and the surface is 0.35. What is the maximum tension in the string to keep the block unmoved?arrow_forwardProblem A block of mass m is placed on a rough surface inclined relative to the horizontal. The incline angle is increased until the block start to move. Show that you can obtain the coefficient of static friction Us by measuring the critical angle e where slipping occurs. Solution Just before slipping, we say that the block is still at rest, so the net force on the x-axis is: EFx=mg Evaluating, we get: = mg But the frictional force is expressed as the product of coefficient and the normal force so. = mg For an inclined plane. The nomal force is n=mg Then, Hs=mg cos(e) so: tan(e)arrow_forwardNiloarrow_forward
