el ramp is used by a worker in a factory to move a cardboard box. The box weighs 40 lb with a center of gravity at point G, the force applied by the worker is parallel to the ramp and the coefficient of friction between the box and ramp is μs = μk = 0.3. Determine the value of the normal force N. Determine the force the worker must apply to slide the box up the ramp. Determine the friction force F acting between the ramp and the box if the worker slid the box up the ramp. Determine the force the worker must apply to slide the box down the ramp. Determine the friction force F acting between the ramp and the box if the worker slid the box up the ramp.

Question

A steel ramp is used by a worker in a factory to move a cardboard box. The box weighs 40 lb with a center of gravity at point G, the force applied by the worker is parallel to the ramp and the coefficient of friction between the box and ramp is μs = μk = 0.3.

  1. Determine the value of the normal force N.
  2. Determine the force the worker must apply to slide the box up the ramp.
  3. Determine the friction force F acting between the ramp and the box if the worker slid the box up the ramp.
  4. Determine the force the worker must apply to slide the box down the ramp.
  5. Determine the friction force F acting between the ramp and the box if the worker slid the box up the ramp.
