A horizontal force F → is applied to a uniform sphere in direction exact toward the center of the sphere, as shown below. Find the magnitude of this force so that the sphere remains in static equilibrium. What is the frictional force of the incline on the sphere?
Determine the equivalent force-couple system at the center O for each of the three cases of forces (F = 340 N) being applied along
the edges of a square plate of side d = 230 mm. The couple is positive if counterclockwise, negative if clockwise.
