Part CPart complete Determine the maximum force P that can be applied without causing the two 43-kg crates to move. The coefficient of static friction between each crate and the ground is μs = 0.32.

Respuesta :

Answer:

the maximum force will be equal to 134.84 N  

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 43 kg

Coefficient of static friction [tex]\mu _s=0.32[/tex]

Acceleration due to gravity [tex]g=9.8m.sec^2[/tex]

We have to find the maximum force which , when applied there is no movement of crates

This maximum force will be equal to frictional force

Frictional force is given by [tex]f=\mu mg=0.32\times 43\times 9.8=134.84N[/tex]

So the maximum force will be equal to 134.84 N
