You are leaning your 5.0 ft, 15.0 lb ladder against the wall inyour garage. There are 2 rubber foot paddles on the bottomof the ladder, and your garage floor is concrete. The staticfriction between the rubber and concrete is μs = 0.580. Whatis the maximum distance from the wall to the rubber footpaddles, which you can lean your ladder without it slipping?Assume the wall is smooth.SThe maximum distance =ft

The bar ABC is supported by three identical, ideal springs. Note that the springs are always vertical because the collars to which they are attached are free to slide on the horizontal rail. Find the angle at equilibrium if W = kL. Neglect the weight of the bar.
Open with Google Docs The homogeneous semicylinder rests on a horizontal surface and is subjected to the force P applied to a cord firmly attached to its periphery. The force P is slowly increased and kept normal to the flat surface of the semicylinder. If slipping is observed just as 0 reaches 40°, determine the coefficient of static fric- tion u, and the value of P when slipping occurs. B 3.

The figure shows a mechanical model of the Russel fracture traction device and the leg. The leg is held in balance in the position indicated by the two weights attached to the two cables. The total weight of the leg and the cast is W=200 N. The horizontal distance between points A and B where the cables are attached to the leg is L=100 cm and the vertical distance is d=10 cm . Point C is the center of gravity of the cast and leg at three quarters of the L measured from point A ( 3L/4= 75 cm) . The angle that cable 2 makes with the horizontal is measured as β=40 ° . Accordingly, in order for the leg to remain in balance in the position shown; a) Find the tensile force T 1 in cable 1 . (Write your result in N ) b) Find the tensile force T 2 in cable 2 . (Write your result in N ) c) Find the angle α of cable 1 with the horizontal
Some idiot created the three-legged table shown. X = 0 X = l W Which of the which of the legs supports about half of the table's weight? O The far leg O The left leg None. Each supports close to one-third of the table's weight. O The right leg None. Each supports approximately the entire tabe's weight.

Physics Problem about Torque and forces. Show the location of the axis of rotation and r for each force that produces torque in the diagram. Also, check calculations, I am off by 1 degree.
Refer to the figure below, what should be the minimum weight of W so that the block of 100ON will not slide down the plane? Assume the pulley to be smooth and u=0.3. 1000N 12
The diameter of two pulleys are (0.3m)and (0.2m), center distance (1m).if we use open belt drive. Determine: 1- the length of V- belt (2ß = 60°). 2- the contact angle between belt and smaller pulley. 3- the horse power, if the smaller pulley turn with speed (400r.p.m) and the tension force in tight side (T1=90ON), coefficient of friction u=0.3 4- the speed of large pulley.
Question 2) The figure shows a mechanical model of the Russel fracture traction device and the leg. The leg is held in balance in the position indicated by the two weights attached to the two cables. The combined weight of the leg and the cast is W=210 N. The horizontal distance between points A and B where the cables are attached to the leg is L=100 cm and the vertical distance is d=6 cm. Point C is the center of gravity of the cast and leg at three quarters of the L measured from point A (3L/4= 75 cm). The angle that cable 2 makes with the horizontal is measured as β=33°. Accordingly, in order for the leg to remain in balance in the shown position; a) Find the tensile force T1 in cable 1. (Write your result in N) b) Find the tensile force T2 in cable 2. (Write your result in N) c) Find the angle α of cable 1 with the horizontal. Response
