The uniform crate shown in Fig. 5 has a mass of 20 kg. If a force P = 80 N is applied to the
crate, determine if it remains in equilibrium. The coefficient of static friction is 0.3. (Ans-
Fmax = 70.9 N, F= 69.30 F < Fmax so Object in Equilibrium.)

The uniform 10-kg ladder in Fig. 6 rests against the smooth wall at B, and the end A rests on
the rough horizontal plane for which the coefficient of static friction is = 0.3. Determine the
6.
angle of inclination ϴ of the ladder and the normal reaction at B if the ladder is on the verge
of slipping. ( Ans- ϴ = 59.040)
Two cylinders are connected by a rope that passes over fixed rods as shown in fig 7 Knowing
that the coefficient of static friction between the rope and the rods is 0.40, determine the
range of the mass m of cylinder D for which equilibrium is maintained. (Ans-Mass min =
14.23 kg, Mass Max =175.59 kg)

A Rope making 1.25 turns around stationary horizontal drum is used to support a weight
W. If the coefficient of friction is 0.3, what range of weight can be supported by exerting a
8.
600 N force at the other end of the rope? Refer fig. 8
(Ans-W min = 56.87 N Wmax = 6330.43 N, Wmin<W<Wmax)
