At a construction site, a pallet of bricks is to be suspended by attaching a rope to it and connecting the other end to a couple of heavy crates on the roof of a building, as shown in (Figure 1). The rope pulls horizontally on the lower crate, and the coefficient of static friction between the lower crate and the roof is 0.509. What is the weight of the heaviest pallet of bricks that can be supported this way? (Hint: Start by drawing appropriate free-body diagrams.) (Express your answer in pounds.) What is the friction force on the upper crate under the conditions given in Part 1? (Express your answer in pounds.)
