Determine the force f which must be applied normal to the


A compressive force of 600 N is to be applied to the two boards in the grip of the C-clamp. The threaded screw has a mean diameter of 10 mm and advances 2.5 mm per turn. The coefficient of static friction is 0.20.

Determine the force F which must be applied normal to the handle at C in order to (a) tighten and (b) loosen the clamp. Neglect friction at point A.
