A towing machine can deliver horizontal towing force T by a strong, inclastic cable. Thetowing force T can vary as shown in the graph. A 490 kg timber, initially at rest, is attachedto the towing machine. The static friction coefficient between the timber and the surface isHk = 0.49, and the towing machine must overcome the minimum force needed to move thetimber against the static friction. If the kinetic friction coefficient between the timber and thesurface is µg = 0.39, determine the velocity of the timber at t= 6.5 seconds.MT (N)2000T=125(s)

A pair of wedges is used to lift a crate as shown in Fig. 15°, and the coefficient of friction is 0.25 at all surfaces. The weight of the wedges is negligible. Determine The crate weighs 3000 N, the wedge angle 0 is The force P necessary to insert the wedge. W
A heavy cask (full of wine!) sits on an inclined plane. It is held in place by a rope that is attached to the cask and to a hook further up the inclined plane (at A). The rope comes off of the cask tangent to the cask. The mass of the cask is 40 kg, and the coefficient of static friction between the inclined plane and the cask is 0.25. What is the maximum value of 0 just before the cask begins to slip? Also, what is the tension in the rope when slipping is impending? Finally, if the inclined plane became icy, and the rope didn't break as the cask slipped, what would be remarkable about the lines of action of the W, N and T force vectors once equilibrium was re-established? 0.70 m 40

(a) A father pulls his child on a sled by pulling on a rope which is 30° with the horizontal, over his shoulder with a force of 50 N. Using the coefficient of friction for steel on ice, calculate the acceleration of the sled if its mass plus the child's is 20 kg, assuming that the sled is already in motion.

Question 3(a) The non uniform XYZ bar which weighs 155 kg has its centre of gravity G at a distance 4 m from X. This bar rests on a homogeneous crate P. The static coefficient of friction between the bar and the crate is 0.31 while the same between the crate and the floor is 0.22. Determine the mass of the lightest crate P (in kilograms) that can be used to support this non uniform bar in the position shown in Figure 3.

Consider the situation shown where a 15-kg box is to be held on a steep vertical slope by a cord that can withstand 80 N. Will the box be held or will the cord snap (i.e. exceed 80 N)? The coefficient of static friction between the box and slope is 0.3. Note: more sophisticated methods exist but do a simple analysis using statics alone and a little reasoning. 60
250 kg concrete wheel with a radius of 1.50 m is being pulled up a hill by a 725 kg cow, with a rope attached to the wheel and the cow. There is a 35.5 cm tall rock protruding out of the hill.

What's the minimum coefficient of static friction between the cow and the hill for the cow to be able to pull the barrel over the rock?
