Question

2. A 4-kg-disk lies in static equilibrium on an incline that makes an angle (0) of 40° up from the horizontal. A rope, parallel to the incline, connects the disk to an immovable wall. Through experi ment it is found that the static friction between the disk and the incline is at a maximum (a) What is the tension in the rope? (b) What is the coefficient of static friction between the disk and the incline? (e) What would the coefficient of static friction need to be to hold the disk in place if 0 were to ap- proach t/22 Does this make physical sense? Explain. With a brief internet search, what is the high est coefficient of friction between two surfaces you can find? (mak e sure to cite your source!
