Solve Prob. 8.66 assuming that the rollers are removed and that μs is the coefficient of friction at all surfaces of contact.(Reference to Problem 8.66):A 200-N block rests as shown on a wedge of negligible weight. The coefficient of static friction μs is the same at both surfaces of the wedge, and friction between the block and the vertical wall may be neglected. For P = 100 N, determine the value of μs for which motion is impending. (Hint: Solve the equation obtained by trial and error.)
