Chapter 8, Problem 8.41(choose chapter or problem)
A 10-ft beam, weighing 1200 lb, is to be moved to the left onto the platform. A horizontal force P is applied to the dolly, which is mounted on frictionless wheels. The coefficients of friction between all surfaces are 0.30 s = and 0.25, k = and initially 2 ft. x = Knowing that the top surface of the dolly is slightly higher than the platform, determine the force P required to start moving the beam. (Hint: The beam is supported at A and D.)
