Determine the smallest force $P$ needed to lift the $3000-1 b$ load. The coefficient of static friction between $A$ and $C$ and between $B$ and $D$ is $\mu_{x}=0.3,$ and between $A$ and $B \mu_{s}^{\prime}=0.4 .$ Neglect the weight of each wedge.
A 200N block rests on the wedge of negligible weight. Knowing that the coefficient of static friction is 0.30 on all surfaces contact. A. Determine the angle for which sliding is impending. B. Compute the normal force exerted on the block by the vertical force exerted on the block by the vertical wall. C. Compute the normal force exerted on the wedge.
