A body, resting on a rough horizontal plane required a pull of 181 N inclined at 30° to the plane just to move it. It was recorded that a push of 220 N inclined at 30°° to the plane just moved the body. Estimate the coefficient of friction.

For vertical equilibrium we have reaction R = W – 181sin30 horizontally, f = 181cos30 Now considering a push of 220N horizontally f = 220cos30 vertically R = W + 220sin30 solving the equations we get μ = 0.171.
