A wedge assembly, composed of wedges X and Y, is designed to lift crate W whose weight is 1CDE N, as shown in the figure below. What will be the maximum force P that can be applied before movement begins if the coefficient of friction for all surfaces of contact is 0.0875? Draw all necessary free-body diagrams and indicate the direction of impending motion. 1CDE N W 1Dº Y P * * * * 20 21 13° 14° 15° 1345 N Parameters 1Cº 1Dº 1E° 1CDE N 1Cº X A B C D E - 1 2 3 4 5 1E⁰
