Free webinar on Robotics (Block Chain) Learn to create a Robotic Device Using Arduino
30th Jan @ 5:00PM for Grade 1 to 10
A 136-kg crate is at rest on the floor. A worker attempts to push it across the floor by applying a 412-N force horizon- tally. (a) Take the coefficient of static friction between the crate and floor to be 0.37 and show that the crate does not move. (b) A second worker helps by pulling up on the crate. What minimum vertical force must this worker apply so that the crate starts to move across the floor? (c) If the second worker applies a horizontal rather than a vertical force, what minimum force, in addition to the original 412-N force, must be exerted to get the crate started?

(a)The magnitude of static force of friction is:Here, m is the mass of the crate, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.Round off to three significant figures,fs = 493 NThe magnitude of applied force by worker is F = 412 N , and is smaller than the static force of friction.Therefore, the crate will not move.(b)Assume that force F1 is applied vertically by another worker, the magnitude of static force of friction would be f’s = μsN’It is important to note that the normal force in this case would be given as:Here m is the mass of the crate, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.The block will start to move when the magnitude of the applied force is equal to the magnitude of static force of friction, that isRound off to three significant figures,F1 = 219 NTherefore, the vertical force applied by the second worker is 219 N .Therefore, a horizontal force of 81 N would be enough to put the crate in motion.
