Two identical, uniform beams are symmetrically set up
against each other (Fig. 9–87) on a floor
with which they have a coefficient of fric-
tion µs = 0.50. What is the minimum
angle the beams can make with the
floor and still not fall?

A parking garage is designed for two levels of cars. To make
more money, the owner decides to double the size of the gar-
age in each dimension (length, width, and number of levels).

two, how should he change the columns’ diameter?
(a) Double the area of the columns by increasing their
diameter by a factor of 2.
(b) Double the area of the columns by increasing their
diameter by a factor of V2.
(c) Quadruple the area of the columns by increasing their
diameter by a factor of 2.
(d) Increase the area of the columns by a factor of 8 by
increasing their diameter by a factor of 2V2.
(e) He doesn't need to increase the diameter of the
columns.
