Question: 3 . A rope is wrapped over a 6 cm diameter pipe to support a bucket of tools being lowered. The coefficient of static friction

3. A rope is wrapped over a 6 cm diameter pipe to support a bucket of tools being lowered. The coefficient of static friction between the rope and the pipe is 0.20.
The combined mass of the bucket and tools is 100 kg.
M =0.20
