Axial Load

When a bar of the uniform cross-section is acted by a load, such that the load acts along the longitudinal axis of the bar, such kinds of loadings are known as axial loadings. In general terms, a load is an external force acting on a component. An axial load acts perpendicular to the geometric cross-section of the component. Based on the direction of the application of the load, an axial load can be tensile or compressive. The analysis of bodies under the action of axial loads is generally studied under the branch of mechanics, known as statics.

Question

The movable bracket shown may be placed at any height on the 3-in.-diameter pipe. If the
cofficient of static friction between the pipe and bracket is 0.25, determine the minimum
distance x at which the load W can be supported. Neglect the weight of the bracket.
