Please help with the attached problem.
The man pushes on the roller with force P through a handle that connects to the
central axle of the roller. If the coefficient of static friction between the 49-lb roller
and the floor is s = 0.22, determine the maximum force Pthat can be applied to
the handle, so that roller rolls on the ground without slipping. Assume the roller to
be a uniform cylinder. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are
randomized. Your answer must include 2 places after the decimal point, and proper
unit. Take g = 32.2 ft/s2.
