Question

A file cabinet weighing 230 lb is being pushed to the right with a horizontal applied a distance h from the floor. The width of the file cabinet is w

= 15 in., its mass center G is a distance d = 2 ft above the floor, and static friction is insufficient to prevent slipping between the cabinet and the floor. Problem 7.17 i If P = 70 lb and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cabinet and the floor is HK = 0.28, determine the maximum height h at which the cabinet can be pushed so that it does not tip over, and find the corresponding acceleration of the cabinet.
