Two identical chairs, each weighing 14 lb, are stacked as shown. The center of gravity of each chair is denoted by G. The coefficient of static friction is 0.2 at B (the contact point between the chairs) and 0.35 at A, C, and D. Determine the smallest force P that would cause sliding.
A uniform plank is supported by a fixed support at A and a drum at B that rotates clockwise. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction for the two points of contact are as shown. Determine whether the plank moves from the position shown if (a) the plank is placed in position before the drum is set in motion; and (b) the plank is first placed on the support at A and then lowered onto the drum, which is already rotating.
