A block is resting on a wooden plank. There is a hinge on one end of the plank which allows the other end to be lifted to create an angle, θ, with respect to the horizontal as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plank is μs. If a student measures that the block begins to move at an angle of θ = 20.5°, what is the numerical value of the coefficient of static friction, μs?

Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial load acts perpendicular to the geometric cross-section of the component. Based on the direction of the application of the load, an axial load can be tensile or compressive. The analysis of bodies under the action of axial loads is generally studied under the branch of mechanics, known as statics.
