A 40-1b roller, of diameter 8 in., which is to be used on a tile floor, is resting directly on the subflooring as shown. Knowing that the thickness of each tile is 0.3 in., determine the force P required to move the roller onto the tiles if the roller is (a) pushed to the left, (b) pulled to the right.

A baseline was measured using a 100m tape which is standardized 15oC with a standard pull of 10kg. The recorded distance was found out to be 430.60 meters. At the time of measurement the temperature was 20oC and the pull exerted was 16 kg. Determine the true length of the base if the weight of one cubic cm. of steel is 7.86 gr. Weight of tape is 2.67kg, E = 2 x 106 kg/cm2, K = 7x10-7 m/oC.
NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE!!! A horizontal shelf AD of length L = 740 mm, width b = 360 mm, and thickness t = 30 mm is supported by brackets at B and C [see part (a) of the figure].
