Example 3.4. A uniform wheel of 600 mm diameter, weighing 5 kN rests against a rigid tangular block of 150 mm height as shown in Fig. 3.8. 600 mm A 150 mm Fig. 3.8. Find the least pull, through the centre of the wheel, required just to turn the wheel over the ner A of the block. Also find the reaction on the block. Take all the surfaces to be smooth.
