FRICTION (rough inclined plane) MAIT
Q. 1:
Determine the necessary force P acting parallel tto the plane as shown in fig 1 to cause motion to impend. µ =
0.25 and pulley to be smooth.
Solution:
Since P is acting downward; the motion too should impend downwards.

Consider first the FBD of 1350N
50N block, as shown in fig (3(3)
∑V = 0
R2 – W = 0
R2 = 1350N ...(i)
∑H = 0
– T + µR2 = 0
Putting the value of R2 and µ
T = 0.25(1350)
= 337.5N ...(ii)
Now Consider the FBD of 450N block, as shown in fig (2)
∑V = 0
R1 – 450sin45° = 0
R1 = 318.2 N ...(i)
∑H = 0
T – P + µR1 – 450sin45° = 0
Putting the value of R1, µ and T we get
P = T + µR1 – 450sin45° = 0
= 337.5 + 0.25 × 318.2 - 450sin45°
P = 98.85 N .......ANS

For least value W, the motion of 2000N block should be impending downward.
From FBD of block 2000N as shown in fig 12.39
∑V = 0
R1 – 2000cos30° = 0
R1 = 1732.06N ...(i)
∑H = 0
T + µ1R1 – 2000sin30° = 0
T = 2000sin30° – 0.20 × 1732.06, T = 653.6N ...(ii)
Now Consider the FBD of WN block, as shown in fig (9.40)
∑V = 0
R2 = Wcos60° = 0
R2 = 0.5W N ...(iii)
∑H = 0
T – µ2R2 – Wsin60°
sin60° = 0
653.6 = Wsin60° – 0.28 × 0.5
0.5W
WLEAST = 649.7N .......ANS
Q.3:
Block A and B connected by a rigid horizontally bar planed at each end are placed on inclined planes as
shown in fig (1).
1). The weight of the block B is 300N. Find the limiting values of the weight of the block A to
just start motion of the system.
Solution:
Let Wa be the weight of block A.. Consider the free body diagram of B. As shown in fig 2. And
Assume AB be the Axis of reference.
∑V = 0;
cos45° – 300 = 0
Rsin45° – µBRcos45°
On solving, R = 606.09N ...(i)
∑H = 0;
sin45° = 0
C – RCos45° – µBRsin45° ...(ii)
Putting the value of R, we get
C = 557.14N ...(iii)
Where C is the reaction imparted by rod.
Consider the free body diagram of block A as shown in fig 3
∑H = 0;
cos30° = 0
C + µARcos60° – Rcos30° ...(iv)
Putting all the values we get
R = 751.85N ...(v)
∑V = 0;
µARsin60° + Rsin60°
sin60° – W = 0
On solving, W = 538.7N ...(vi)
Hence weight of block A = 538.7N .......ANS

Q. 4: What should be the valuee of the angle shown in fig 1 so that the motion of the 90N block impends down
the plane? The coefficient of friction for the entire surface = 1/3.
Solution:
Consider the equilibrium of block 30N

∑V = 0;
R1 – 30cosθ = 0,
R1 = 30cosθ ...(i)
∑H = 0;
T – µR1 – 30sinθ = 0,
T = 10cosθ + 30sinθ ...(ii)
Consider the equilibrium of block 90N
∑V = 0;
R2 – R1 – 90cosθ = 0
R2 = 120cosθ ...(iii)
∑H = 0;
90sinθ – µR1 – µR2 = 0,
90sinθ = 10cosθ + 40sin
40sinθ ...(vi)
tanθ = 5/9 i.e.,
θ = 29.050
Q. 5:
A block weighing 200N is in contact with an inclined plane (Inclination = 30º) [figure 1].. Will the block move
under its own weight. Determine the minimum force applied (1) parallel (2) perpendicular to the plane to
prevent the motion down the plane. What foforce P will be required to just cause the motion up the plane, µ =
0.25?
Solution:
Consider the FBD of block as shown in fig 2

From the equilibrium condition
Sum of forces perpendicular to plane = 0
R – Wcos30° = 0;
R = Wcos30° ...(i)
Sum of forces parallel to plane = 0
µR – Wsin30° = 0 ...(ii)
Now body will move down only if the value of µ
µR is less than Wsin30°

Now, µR = 0.25 × W(0.866) (0.866) = 0.2165
0.2165W ...(iii)
And Wsin30° = 0.5W ...(vi)
Since value of (iv)) is less than value of ((iii) So the body will move down.
(i) When Force acting parallel

el to plane as shown in fig 3
Frictional force is acting up the plane
∑V = 0;
R = 0.216W ...(v)
∑H = 0;
P = Wsin30° – µR
P = 0.5 × 200 – 0.216 × 200
P = 56.7N .......ANS
(ii) When Force acting perpendicularr to plane as shown in fig 44. Frictional force is acting up the plane
∑H = 0;
Wsin30° – µR = 0
R = 400 ...(vii)
∑V = 0;
P + R = Wcos30°
P = 0.866 × 200 – 400
P = –226.79N .......ANS
(iii)) The force P required to just cause the motion up the plane as shown in fig 5. Frictional force is acting down the
plane.
Sum of force perpendicular to plane = 0
R = Wcos30
= 172.2N ...(viii)
Sum of force Parallel to plane = 0
P – µR – Wsin30 = 0
P = 0.25 × 172.2 – 200sin30
P = 143.3N .......ANS

Q. 6:: A body of weight 50KN rests in limiting equilibrium on a rough plane, whose slope is 30º. The plane is
raised to a slope of 45º; what force, applied to the body parallel to the inclined plane, will support the body on
the plane.
Solution:
Consider when the slope of the plane be 30°

µR – Wsin30° = 0 ...(i)
R – Wcos30° = 0
R = Wcos30° ...(ii)
Putting the value of R in equation (i)) We get
µ = tan30º = 0.577 ...(iii)
Now consider the case when the slope is 45°, Let Force P required to support the body.
In this case
sin45° = 0
P – µR – Wsin45° ...(iv)
R – Wcos45° = 0
R = Wcos45° ...(v)
Putting the value of R in equation (iv)) we get
P = µWcos45° – Wsin45°sin45°
P = 15.20KN .......ANS
Q. 7:: Force of 200N is required just to move a certain body up an inclined plane of angle 150, the force being
parallel to plane. If angle of indication is made 20º the effort again required parallel to plane is found 250N.
Determine the weight of body and coefficient of friction.
Solution:

Case-1
Consider when the slope of the plane be 15º
P – µR – Wsin15° = 0 ...(i)
R = Wcos15° ...(ii)
Putting the value of (ii) in (i), we get
P = µWcos15° + Wsin15° = 0
200 = 0.96µW + 0.25W ...(iii)
Case-2
Consider When the slope of the plane be 20º
P – µR – Wsin20° = 0 ...(iv)
R = Wcos20° ...(v)
Putting the value of (v) in (iv), We get
P = µWcos20° + Wsin20° = 0
250 = 0.939µW + 0.34W ...(vi)
Solved equation (iii) and (vi) we get
W = 623.6N and µ = 0.06 .......ANS
Q. 8: A four wheel drive can as shown in fig (1(1) has mass of 2000Kg with passengers. The roadway is inclined
at an angle with the horizontal. If the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is 0.3, what is the
maximum inclination that can climb?
Solution:
Let the maximum value for inclination is θ for body to remain stationary.
Let 0.25m distance is the distance between the inclined surface and C.G. Now,
Wsinθ = µ(R1 + R2) ...(i)
R1 + R2 = Wcosθ ...(ii)
Putting the value of (ii) in (i), We get
Wsinθ = µ(Wcosθ)
Or µ = tanθ
θ = tan–1(0.3)
θ = 16.69º .......ANS

Q. 9: A weight 500N just starts moving down a rough inclined plane supported by force 200N acting parallel
to the plane and it is at the point of moving up the plane when pulled by a force of 300N parallel to the plane.
Find the inclination of the plane and the coefficient of friction between
tween the inclined plane and the weight.
Solution:
In first case body is moving down the plane, so frictional force is acting up the plane
Let θ be the angle of inclination and µ be the coefficient of friction.
200 + µR = 500sinθ ...(i)
R = 500cosθ ...(ii)
Putting the value of (ii) in equation (i)
200 + 500µcos? = 500sin
500sinθ ...(iii)
Now 300N is the force when applied to block, it move in upward direction. Hence in this case ffrictional
rictional force acts
downward.
R = 500cosθ ...(iv)
300 = µR + 500sinθ ...(v)
Putting the value of (iv) in equation (v)
300 = 500µcosθ + 500sin
500sinθ ...(vi)
Adding equation (iii) and (vi), We get
Sinθθ = 1/2; or θ = 30° ........ANS
Putting the value in any equation we get
µ = 0.115 .......ANS
