Friction

Three blocks are positioned on an incline of 0-27° as shown. A force of
is applied to Block B and a wire attaches Block A to the wall, preventing
that block from moving.
The mass of Block A is ma=27kg, the mass of Block B is mg=59kg, and
the mass of Block C is mc=40kg. The coefficient of static friction betwee
Block A and Block B is uAB=0.28, between Block B and Block C is u
BC=0.36, and between Block C and the ground is µcG=0.48.
Determine the maximum value of P before any slipping takes place. Writ
your answer for P in N units to 2 decimal places in the box below.
Hint #1: Recall that the shear (tangential) force across a sliding surface c
never exceed F = mu *N
Hint #2: You will need to find a value for P based on the condition that
one block slips AND a value for P based on the condition that multiple
blocks slip. The final answer will be the lesser of the two values.
