Auniform cubical crate is 0.740 m on each side and weighs 600 n. it rests on the floor with one edge against a very small, fixed obstruction. at what least height above the floor must a horizontal force of magnitude 330 n be applied to the crate to tip it?

H = 0.673

Explanation:

given,

side of cubical crate = 0.74

weight of the crate = 600 N

magnitude of force = 330 N

the Horizontal distance of its Center of mass

= 0.74/2

= 0.37

Let the required Height be H

By Balancing the Torques, we get

H x 330 N = 0.37 x 600

330 H = 222

H = 0.673

hence, the height above the floor where force is acting is equal to 0.673 m
