Chapter 6, Problem 17PQ
A filled treasure chest (m = 375 kg) with a long rope tied around its center lies in the middle of a room. Dirk wishes to drag the chest, but there is friction between the chest and the floor with μs = 0.52. If the angle between the rope and the floor is 30.0°, what is the magnitude of the tension required to just get the chest moving?
