A 16-lb spool is at rest on an inclined surface. Around its center a cable is wound which travels with the same inclination of the ramp, passes through a frictionless pulley, and is attached to a block B at its other end.The coefficient of static friction between block B and the floor is 0.25. For the position shown, with the given value of α, determine: R (in) = 11,1 in r (in) = 7 in α (°) = 16° 1. The minimum coefficient of static friction that must exist between the reel and the floor of the ramp, so that the reel does NOT slide on the ramp (does not slip). 2.The minimum weight that block B must have for the reel to NOT roll down the ramp dragging block B. Do not allow for the possibility of the block turning or tipping over.
