PROBLEM 8.41
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
.)

b
) Show that the beam
can
be moved if two 175-lb workers
stand on the beam at
B
and determine how far to the left the beam
can be moved.
