A 40−kg vase has a 200−mm-diameter base and is being moved using a 100−kg utility cart as shown. The cart moves on the ground with μk = 0.10. Knowing the coefficient of static friction between the vase and the cart is μs = 0.4, determine the maximum force F that can be applied if the vase is not to slide or tip.

Two rectangular blocks are stacked on a table as shown in the figure. The upper block has a mass of 3.40 kg, and the lower block has a mass of 38.6 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the lower block and the table is 0.260. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is 0.551. A string is attached to the lower block, and an external force F is applied horizontally, pulling on the string. What is the maximum force that can be applied to the string without having the upper block slide off?

A rigid, vertical rod with a mass of 2.9 kg simply rests on the floor and is held in place by static friction. The coefficient of static friction between the rod and the floor is 1/7. The rod also has a wire connected between its top end and the floor, as shown in the figure. A horizontal force F is applied at the midpoint of the rod. Find the greatest force F that can be applied at the midpoint of the rod without causing it to slip. N
