The position of the 68 kg pipe is adjusted by the 18∘ wedge under the action of the force P. If the coefficient of static friction between the pipe and the wedge is 0.23 and that between the wedge and the horizontal surface is 0.19, (a) determine whether slipping will occur between the pipe and the vertical wall (b) determine the force P required to move the wedge Figure Q3
