Chapter 6, Problem 64GP

Predict/Calculate The blocks shown in Figure 6-64 are at rest. (a) Find the frictional force exerted on block A given that the mass of block A is 8.82 kg, the mass of block B is 2.33 kg and the coefficient of static friction between block A and the surface on which it rests is 0.320. (b) If the mass of block A is doubled does the frictional force exerted on it increase decrease, or stay the same? Explain.
