PROBLEM #1 (20 points) A uniform crate weighs 50 lbs and rests on a cart having an Answer: inclined surface. The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the cart is us = 0.5. Dimensions for the crate a = and angle of the incline are given below: Crate: h = 3 ft, w = 1.5 ft Incline: Angle, 0 = 15 deg If a person pulls on the crate with a force F, determine the smallest acceleration that will cause the crate either to tip or slip relative to the cart. What is the magnitude of this acceleration? W
