Question
(a) The rope is wrapped exactly once around a post. The load side is 250 Newtons, the input side is 125
Newtons. What is the coefficient of friction of the rope around the post?
(b) If the coefficient of friction was 0.33, 75 pound input , and wrapped as shown below, what load can you
handle in pounds?
(c) If the coefficient of friction was zero , 250N input, and wrapped three times around the mandrel, what
load can you handle?
