    The document discusses static equilibrium of an object on an inclined plane. It contains the following key points: 1) The range of applied force W0 for which the block is in static equilibrium on the plane is given by W(sinα - μscosα) ≤ W0 ≤ W(sinα + μscosα). 2) For a pulley system with friction, the tension T2 in the cable wrapped around the pulley is related to the initial tension T1 by the expression T2 = T1exp(-μsφ) where φ is the angle of wrap and μs is the coefficient of friction. 3) This "capstan effect" results in a dramatic reduction

    L2
    a= tan

    The resultant of the normal force and frictional force act directly below the
    center of mass.

    EXAMPLE

    Q: For what range of W0 is the block in equilibrium?

    FBD
    Case 1: Impending motion is down the plane.

    
    Fx = 0
    T1 + F1 W sin = 0

    
    Fy = 0
    N1 W cos = 0

    4
    Case 2: Impending motion is up the plane.

    
    Fx = 0
    T2 + F2 W sin = 0

    
    Fy = 0
    N2 cos = 0
    What about T ?

    FBD of Cable

    Look at dierential element

    5
    Fx = 0
       
    d d
    T () cos T ( + d) cos =0
    2 2
    T () = T ( + d) = T

    Fy = 0
       
    d d
    dN T () sin T ( + d) sin =0
    2 2
    d d
    dN T () T ( + d) =0
    2 2
    T d = dN
    So:

    T = W0
    Back to block:

    T1 = T2 = W0
    N1 = N2 = N = W cos
    For case 1:

    F1 = s N = s W cos

    s W cos + W0 + W sin = 0
    W0 = W sin s W cos
    The block will be stable against downward motion when:

    W0 = W sin s W cos
    For case 2:

    F2 = s N = s W cos

    s W cos + W0 + W sin = 0
    W0 = W sin s W cos

    6
    The block will be stable against downward motion when:

    W0 W sin + s W cos
    So it is stable when:

    W (sin s cos ) W0 W (sin + s cos )

    What about pulley with friction? Look at a dierential element.


    Recall a rope around a rod.

    
    Fx = 0
       
    d d
    T () cos T ( + d) cos dF = 0
    2 2
    
    Fy = 0
       
    d d
    dN T () sin T ( + d) sin dF = 0
    2 2
     
    d d
    sin
    2 2
     
    d
    cos 1
    2

    dT = T ( + d) T () T ( + d) = T () + dT = T + dT
    So:

    T () T ( + d) dF = 0
    dT = dF

    T d d
    dN + (T + dT ) =0
    2 2
    T + dT 0
    dN T d = 0
    With impending motion:

    dF = s dN

    dT = s dN
    dT
    dN =
    s
    Substitute:
    dT
    T d = 0
    s
    Thus:
    dT
    = s d
    T
    Integrate:
     T2 
    dT
    = s d
    T1 T 0
     T2
    ln T = s
    T
     1
    T2
    ln = s
    T1
    T2
    = exp(s )
    T1
    T2 = T1 exp(s )
    This is known as the capstan eect.

    EXAMPLE: Boat on a dock

    = 3(2) 20
    s = 0.4
    T2 = T1 exp(8)
     
    1
    T2 T1
    3000
