9 in - 9 in 5 in 3 Y 5 in Block A 4. [25 points] Block A shown in Figure 4a, is homogeneous and prismatic. Block A weighs 250 lb. a) Compute the x and y coordinates of Block A's center of gravity (ca.) b) Block A is no longer homogeneous and rests on an incline as shown in Figure 45. A weight, W, is suspended from a ftat belt that passes over a circular, fixed peg at C, runs parallel to the incline, and is attached to Block A at point B. Assume Block A's c.g. is located as shown (note: this is different from Part a). Compute the tension in the belt between B and C that would cause Block A to move. A FBD is required for full credit. c) Will Block A slip or tip if tension is increased? Support your choice with clear evidence (calculations). d) Compute the maximum weight, W, that could be suspended without causing Block A to move.
