Required information Problem 07.017 - Cabinet sliding on floor A file cabinet weighing 205 lb is being pushed to the right with a horizontal force P 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. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the cabinet and the floor is uk = 0.28. Take the value of P to be 70 lb. O! ! ! ! Problem 07.017.a - Cabinet sliding on floor: forces, acceleration, and tipping condition 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. The maximum height at which the cabinet can be pushed so that it does not tip over is 2.19 ft. The acceleration of the cabinet is 10.95 ft/s2
