a W P h F N X O Write an equilibrium equation – Moment at point O Take Moment about O, W x –Ph= 0 or x = Ph/W The block is on the verge on tipping if N acts at the right corner of the block, x = a/
This graph can only be used when there is no tipping.

8.1 Characteristics of Dry Friction -8.1 Characteristics of Dry Friction -MotionMotion Theory of Dry Friction Motion If the magnitude of P acting on the block is increased so that it is greater than Fs, the frictional force at the contacting surfaces drops slightly to a smaller value Fs, called kinetic frictional force The block will not be held in equilibrium (P > Fs) but slide with increasing speed
8.1 Characteristics of Dry Friction - Motion8.1 Characteristics of Dry Friction - Motion Theory of Dry Friction Resultant frictional force F k is directly proportional to the magnitude of the resultant normal force N Fk = μkN Constant of proportionality μk is called the coefficient of kinetic friction μk are typically 25% smaller than μs

8.1 Characteristics of Dry Friction8.1 Characteristics of Dry Friction Theory of Dry Friction
The graph summarizes the effects regarding friction and shows the variation of frictional force F versus applied load P This is applicable for sliding only not tipping. Static-Frictional Force/Equilibrium Limiting Frictional Force/Motion is impending
8.2 Problems Involving Dry Friction8.2 Problems Involving Dry Friction Types of Friction Problems Equilibrium (^) Total number of unknowns = Total number of available equilibrium equations (^) Frictional forces must satisfy F ≤ μ sN; otherwise, slipping will occur and the body will not remain in equilibrium (^) We must determine the frictional forces at A and C to check for equilibrium Draw the FBD.
8.2 Problems Involving Dry Friction8.2 Problems Involving Dry Friction Types of Friction Problems
If the bars are uniform and have known weights of 100N each, FBD are shown below
There are 6 unknown force components which can be determined strictly from the 6 equilibrium equations (three for each member)
