(a)
Answer to Problem 8.119P
The smallest combined mass m of the bucket is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The mass of the block C is
The coefficient of static friction is
The coefficient of kinetic friction is
The drum B is frozen and cannot rotate.
Calculation:
Show the free-body diagram of the drum B as in Figure 1.
Find the angle of the belt wounded around the drum as follows;
Find the tension
Substitute mg for
Here, the acceleration due to gravity is g.
Consider the value of acceleration due to gravity is
Show the free-body diagram of the block C as in Figure 2.
At rest, the cable slips on the drum. The motion impending is along the x-axis.
Substitute
Resolve the horizontal component of forces.
Substitute 100 kg for
Find the friction force (F) using the relation.
Substitute 0.35 for
Resolve the vertical component of forces.
Substitute
Therefore, the smallest combined mass m of the bucket is
(b)
Find the smallest combined mass m of the bucket for the block C start moving up the incline.
