Two blocks A and B are connected by a tope which wraps around a peg with static coefficient of friction of 02 The block B weighs 50-lb and is subjected to a 35-lb force as shown. The static coefficient of friction for the contact surface between the block and the ground is 0.4. Find the range of weight of block B for no motion. (Hint: no motion means no sliding and no tipping).
