The position of the automobile jack shown is controlled by a screw ABC that is single-threaded at each end (right-handed thread at A, left-handed thread at C). Each thread has a pitch of 0.1 in. and a mean diameter of 0.375 in. If the coefficient of static friction is 0.15, determine the magnitude of the couple M that must he applied to raise the automobile.
