A 500-N concrete block is to be lifted by the pair of tongs shown. ON 315 mm 500 N D G 105 mm Determine the friction force in N on each tong in contact with the block. Determine the normal force (this is horizontal) in N perpendicular to the friction force on each tong in contact with the block. Determine the smallest allowable value of the coefficient of static friction between the block and the tongs at Fand G.
