Question

The adjacent diagram (Fig. 1.27) shows a heavy roller, with its axle at O, which is to be raised on a pavement XY by applying a minimum possible force. If there is friction between the roller and pavement, show by an arrow on the diagram the point of application and the direction of force to be applied.

Open in App
