6/64 The jack shown is designed to lift small unit-body automobiles. The screw is threaded into the collar pivoting at B, and the shaft rotates in a ball thrust bearing at A. The thread has a mean diameter of 10 mm and a lead (advance per revolution) of 2 mm. The coefficient of friction of the threads is 0.20. Determine the force P normal to the handle at D required (a) to raise a 500-kg mass from the position shown and (b) to lower the load from the same position. Neglect friction in the pivot and bearing at A.
