A 40-kg packing crate must be moved to the left along the floor without tipping. Knowing that the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor is 0.35, determine (a) the largest allowable value of a, (b) the corresponding magnitude of the force P.
A 40-kg packing crate is pulled by a rope as shown. The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor is 0.35. If a = 408, determine (a) the magnitude of the force P required to move the crate, (b) whether the crate will slide or tip.
