6. A block weighing 100N is held on a 40" incline by a bar attached to a 150N block on a horizontal plane. The bar, which is fastened by smooth pins at each end, is inclined 20° above the horizontal. The angle of friction between each block and its plane is 18". Fin the horizontal force P applied to the 150N block which will cause to be on the point of moving (a) to the right; (b) to the left.
