Question

Bucket A and block C are connected by a cable that passes over drum B. Knowing that drum B rotates slowly counterclockwise and that the coefficients of friction at all surfaces are (mu = 0.35), determine the smallest combined mass m of the bucket and its contents for which block C will start moving up the incline. Given that ( heta = 40^{circ}) and (W = 200 ext{ kg}) Answer in 3 decimals and in kg

Step 1

- Weight of block C: \( W = 200 \, \text{kg} \times 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 1962 \, \text{N} \). - Normal force \( N \) acting perpendicular to the incline. - Frictional force \( f \) acting opposite to the direction of motion. - Tension \( T \) in the cable. Show more…
