The brake pads at C and D are pressed against the cylinder by the spring BF. The coefficient of static friction betwveen each pad and the cylinder is 0.15. Find the smallest tension in the spring that would prevent the cylinder from rotating when the clockwise couple M = 248.6 N • m is applied. Neglect the weights of the members. Dimensions in mm.
