This is specifically a Statics problem.
A 75-kg cabinet is mounted on casters which can be locked to prevent their rotation. The coefficient of static friction between each caster and the floor is 0.32. Assuming that the casters at both A and B are locked, determine
a) the force P required to move the cabinet to the right, and
b) the largest allowable value of h if the cabinet is not to tip over.
