A block (W₁) with dimensions as shown, a = 33 in., and b = 72 in., sits on a sloped surface, with 0 = 46°, and is connected to a second block (W2) with a belt passing over four cylinders. What is the weight of the second block, W2, necessary to cause the first block to move (check all movement cases) if W₁ = 216lb and all surfaces have a coefficient of friction, μ, = 0.56? W₂
