Is there something missing in my post? I'm pretty sure I gave all the information in the attachment but let me know if I need to change something. This problem is really bothering me.
All the information is in the attachment.
The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to satisfy the equations correctly, and I can't figure out why. Am I doing this right?
This is the problem then. My intuition tells me that no, it will not move because the force must be bigger than Fs(max). However, the book I'm using says
Based on your answer I assume my intuition is correct? If Fs(max)=F the object will not move, and the minute F>Fs(max) it will start moving...
This is mostly a theoretical question, I'm studying mechanics by myself so I have no teacher to ask this.
Homework Statement
The minimum force needed to move a stationary object is equal to the max static friction. However, I just encountered a question that included a sloped surface and...
