Bar ABCDE is supported by three properly aligned journal bearings at B, C, and D as shown. The bearings do not exert thrust. The force vector at E is

Block A has a negligible weight and sits on an inclined plane. Determine the following: a. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is μ = 0.16 determine the minimum force P that would cause the block A to slide to the left if Q = 160lb.  b. If instead the coefficient of friction were large enough to prevent block A from sliding, determine the minimum force P that would cause the block to tip over with Q = 160lb.  c. If block B is added to the left of block A and connected by a rigid link (as shown in the lower figure), find the maximum weight of block B for which the system would not slide when P=70lb and μ = 0.16.
