⚡ Mecademy AIENG정역학 · ch6 Problem Statement Calculate the rightward force which would remove the wedge from under the door of Prob. 6/48. Assume that corner does not slip for your calculation of , but then check this assumption; the coefficient of static friction at is . Data from Prob. 6/48: The 100-kg industrial door with mass center at is being positioned for repair by insertion of the wedge under corner . Horizontal movement is prevented by the small ledge at corner . If the coefficients of static friction at both the top and bottom wedge surfaces are , determine the force required to lift the door at . The horizontal distance from to is , and from to corner is . Problem 6/49 (a) Determination of Vertical Reaction at B ● Calculation Process 1. Present Final Formula: Considering the door as a rigid body in equilibrium, the sum of moments about point must be zero to determine the vertical component of the reaction at . 2. Substitute Values: Weight of the door: Horizontal distance Horizontal distance 3.
