Document Summary

Impending tipping (page 390) page 2: figure 8-1 (d) Figure 8-1 (d) shows a uniform block of weight. P acts on the block. rough horizontal surface. The surface exerts a resultant normal force resultant friction force. N acts a distance x to the right of the line of action of. Wx = ph: criterion for no tipping. The block will not tip if x = The block is on the verge of tipping when x = Impending sliding (page 390) page 2: figure 8-3. Figure 8-3 shows friction force f as a function of applied force p . It is assumed that tipping does not occur. Impending sliding (page 390) page 3: no motion. The block is in equilibrium when f = p and f ! S is the coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface. The block is on the verge of sliding when f = f s . This situation is called impending sliding: motion.
