Question 1. Q2.47 Pg 161, PCD


The coefficient of friction between the blocks 1 and 2 is µ1 and
between the block 2 and the escalator 3 is µ2. The escalator
moves at constant velocity v. Find the condition so that the
block 2 does not move w.r.t. the elevator. If this condition is not
satisfied find a2|3.

Question 2. Q2.49 Pg 162, PCD


A vehicle of mass m moves on a banked road in a circle of
radius R at a speed v. The coefficient of friction for the
ground is µ. Neglect the inertia of the wheels and the
rotational inertia of the main body of the vehicle. (a) Find v
for which the friction force is zero. (b) Find the range of v
for which there is no slip. (c) Find the condition of tipping
and show that tipping occurs before slip if µ > b/h.

Question 3. Q2.50 Pg 162, PCD

An overhead monorail system is accelerated to the right by driving


one of its wheels A or B. Which should be the driving wheel to get
larger acceleration? Neglect the inertia of the wheels. The
coefficient of friction for the wheels is µ.

Question 4. Problem 8.115 Beer et al.


The speed of the brake drum shown is controlled by a belt attached to the
control bar AD. A force P of magnitude 25 N is applied to the control bar
at A. Determine the magnitude of the couple being applied to the drum,
knowing that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the belt and the
drum is 0.25, that a = 4 cm, and that the drum is rotating at a constant
speed (a) counterclockwise, (b) clockwise.
Question 5. Problem 8.118 Beer et al.

Bucket A and block C are connected by a cable that passes


over drum B. Knowing that drum B rotates slowly
counterclockwise and that the coefficients of friction at all
surfaces are μs = 0.35 and μk = 0.25, determine the smallest
combined mass m of the bucket and its contents for which
block C will (a) remain at rest, (b) start moving up the incline,
(c) continue moving up the incline at a constant speed.

Question 6. Problem 8.128 Beer et al.


The 10-N bar AE is suspended by a cable that passes over a 5-cm-
radius drum. Vertical motion of end E of the bar is prevented by
the two stops shown. Knowing that μs = 0.3 between the cable and
the drum, determine (a) the largest counterclockwise couple MO
that can be applied to the drum if slipping is not to occur, (b) the
corresponding force exerted on end E of the bar.

Question 7. Problem 8.136 Beer et al.


The cylinder shown is of weight W and radius r. Express in terms W and r the
magnitude of the largest couple M that can be applied to the cylinder if it is
not to rotate, assuming the coefficient of static friction to be (a) zero at A and
0.30 at B, (b) 0.25 at A and 0.30 at B.
