A 125 kg wheel with a radius of 2.50 m is being pulled up an incline by a 550 kg horse. There is a 45.0 cm high protrusion in the incline, as shown in the figure. a)What is the tension in the rope when the wheel is just beginning to lift off the incline to go over the protrusion? b)What is the minimum possible coefficient of static friction between the horse and the incline for the horse to be able to pull the wheel over the protrusion?
