7. The coefficients of friction are and between all surfaces of contact shown in
Figure P9.7. Determine the smallest force required to start the block moving if cable (a) is
attached as shown, (b) is removed.
8. The block and the block are supported by an incline that is held in the position shown
in Figure P9.8. Knowing that the coefficient of static friction is between the two blocks and zero
between block and the incline, determine the value of for which motion is impending.
9. Three packages , , and are placed on a conveyor belt that is at rest shown in Figure P9.9.
Between the belt and both packages and , the coefficients of friction are and ;
between package and the belt, the coefficients are and . The packages are placed
on the belt so that they are in contact with each other and at rest. Determine which, if any, of the
packages will move and the friction force acting on each package.
