A cord connects two bodies of weights 400 N and 800 N.
The two bodies are
placed on an inclined plane and cord is parallel to inclined plane.
The coefficient
of friction for the weight of 400 N is 0.15 and that for 800 N is
0.4. Determine the
inclination of the plane to the horizontal and the tension in the
cord when the
motion is about to take place, down the inclined plane. The body
weighing 400 N
is below the body weighing 800 N.
