Question

Answer the following questions about friction.

12 lb

13 lb

14 lb

20 lb

For the figure in part A, P=15 lb, W = 20 lb, and Q = 0, the value of the friction force is:

12 lb

14 lb

15 lb

20 lb

For the figure in part A, W = 20 lb, and Q = 20 lb, the maximum the friction force can be is:

12 lb

14 lb

24 lb

28 lb

The direction of the friction force is:

1- in the direction of impending motion

2- oppoisite the direction of impending motion

3- perpendicular to impending motion

4- always horizontal

W

W+Pcos

W+Psin

W-Pcos

W-Psin

A.

For P=13 lb, W = 20 lb, and Q = 0, the value of the friction force is:

12 lb

13 lb

14 lb

20 lb

Explanation / Answer

here,

A)

the static friction force , Fs = us * (Q + W)

Fs = 0.7 * ( 20 + 0) = 14 lb

as Fs > P

the frictional force = P = 13 lb

B)

the static friction force , Fs = us * (Q + W)

Fs = 0.7 * ( 20 + 0) = 14 lb

as Fs < P

the frictional force = 14 lb

C)

the maximum friction force , Fs = us * (Q + W)

Fs = 0.7 * ( 20 + 20 ) = 28 lb

d)

the direction of friction force is 2) opposite to the direction of impending motion

e)

equating the forces vertically

the normal force ,N = W - P * sin(theta)
