The uniform cylindrical drum D weighs 42.0 lb. The coefficient of static friction at all surfaces is 0.600, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.500 at all surfaces. The cylinder is pushed by force P applied to a pad as shown, and it is intended for the cylinder to translate horizontally without rotation. a) Calculate the minimum force P required.b) Calculate the acceleration of the drum. **Problem Statement: Translation of a Uniform Cylindrical Drum**A uniform cylindrical drum \( D \) weighs 42.0 lb. The coefficient of static friction at all surfaces is 0.600, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.500 at all surfaces. The cylinder is pushed by force \( P \) applied to a pad as shown, and it is intended for the cylinder to translate horizontally without rotation.**Tasks:**a) Calculate the minimum force \( P \) required.b) Calculate the acceleration of the drum.**Diagram Explanation:**The diagram illustrates a cylindrical drum \( D \) resting on a horizontal surface. A force \( P \) is applied horizontally to a pad attached to the drum. The cylinder is intended to move horizontally without initiating rotation. The static and kinetic friction forces act between the cylinder and the surface to counteract motion, and the aim is to maintain linear translation without any rotational effect on the drum.**Core Concepts:**- **Weight of the Drum:** 42.0 lb- **Coefficient of Static Friction:** 0.600- **Coefficient of Kinetic Friction:** 0.500- **Force Applied (\( P \))**: The force \( P \) is applied horizontally to prevent rotation while translating the drum along the surface.
