The figure shows a pair of pin-jointed gripper-tongs holding an object weighing 2000 N. The coefficient of friction (u) at the gripping surface is 0.1. XX is the line of action of the input force and YY is the line of application of gripping force. If the pin- joint is assumed to be frictionless, the magnitude of force Frequired to hold the weight is Pin Y- 150mm ww 00
