As shown in the Figure, two blocks each weighing 20 KN and resting horizontal surface, are to be push apart by a 30° wedge. The angle o friction is 15° for all contact surfaces. How would be the value of P w changed if the weight of one block were increase by 30 KN? * P 15° 15° 20 kN 20 kN None of the above The Value of P willl increase by one-third. The value of P will increase by half. The value of P will reduce by two-third.
