Question
Determine a formula for the magnitude of the force Fexerted on the large block (rac) in Fig. 4-51 so that themass mA does not move relative to mc . Ignore all friction.Assume raB does not make contact with mc .FIGURE 4-51 59.
Solution
The first step in solving 4 problem number 59 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Determine a formula for the magnitude of the force Fexerted on the large block (rac) in Fig. 4-51 so that themass mA does not move relative to mc . Ignore all friction.Assume raB does not make contact with mc .FIGURE 4-51 59.
