Question

Determine the magnitude of force P needed to start towing the 40kg crate.Also determine the location of the resultant normal force acting on the crate

Answer 1

The distance from Point A=500 mm

Explanation:

M := 40kg c := 200mm

μs := 0.3 d := 3

a := 400mm e := 4

b := 800mm

Initial guesses: $N_{c}$ := 200 N P := 50N
