Replace the five forces acting on the plate by a wrench. Suppose that F1 = 700 N and F2 = 550 N . (Figure 1) Part A Determine the magnitude of the force of the wrench. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Part B Determine the couple moment of the wrench. Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Enter positive value if the sense of direction of the couple moment is the same as that of the resultant force and negative value if the sense of direction of the couple moment is opposite to that of the resultant force. Part C Determine the point P(x,z) where the wrench intersects the x-z plane. Enter the x and z coordinates of point PP separated by a comma using three significant figures.

The three bars have a weight of W₁ = 20 lb, WB = 40 lb, and Wc = 60 lb, respectively. If the coefficients of static friction at the surfaces of contact are as shown, determine the smallest horizontal force P needed to move block A. Hint: To answer this question you need to test which blocks are slipping (A alone OR A&B together). Finally, (answer as a sentence) how would you describe the friction between the blocks that are NOT slipping? Would F=μs be applicable? 91 7989 de sa suv CCB=0.5 BBA=0.3 AμAD=0.2 P D
