- A cleated conveyor belt transports solid homogeneous cylinders up a 15° incline. The diameter of each cylinder is half its height. Determine the maximum acceleration which the belt may have without tipping the cylinders as it starts. Find the reaction force between the cylinder and the conveyor belt and the direction of it when we have the maximum acceleration. 15°
