Question
Consider the following:
(a) A cylinder having a mass of 250 kg is to be supported by the cord which wraps over the pipe. Determine the largest vertical force F that can be applied to the cord without moving the cylinder. The cord passes two times over the pile, β = 3π. Assume μs = 0.2.
(b) Does putting masking tape between the cord and the pipe increase or decrease the largest force if adding tape increases the coefficient of static friction? Explain.
