Ladder Slip? A 3.0-m-long ladder leans against a frictionless wall at an angle of 60°. What is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction with the ground, that prevents the ladder from slipping? \L=3.0 m dz Center of mass • net = 0 about this point. 60° Gravity acts at di the center of mass. ***** Static friction prevents slipping.

R8-7. The uniform 50-lb beam is supported by the rope that is attached to the end of the beam, wraps over the rough peg, and is then connected to the 100-lb block. If the coefficient of static friction between the beam and the block, and between the rope and the peg, is us = 0.4, determine the maximum distance that the block can be placed from A and still remain in equilibrium. Assume the block will not tip. 1 1 ft 10 ft- Prob. R8-7 المسوحة فولا CamSearer
