Question:

The uniform dresser has weight W and rests on a tile floor for which the coefficient of friction is μs. If the man pushes on it in the direction θ, determine the smallest magnitude of force F needed to move the dresser. Also, if the man has a weight Wman, determine the smallest coefficient of static friction between his shoes and the floor so that he does not slip.


Given:

W = 90 lb

μ s = 0.25

Wman = 150 lb

θ = 30 deg



The uniform dresser has man pushes on it in the direction θ
