Chapter 9, Problem 74GP
A 2.0-m-high box with a 1.0-m-square base is moved across a rough floor as in Fig. 9-89.The uniform box weighs 250 N and has a coefficient of static friction with the floor of 0.60. What minimum force must be exerted on the box to make it slide? What is the maximum height h above the floor that this force can be applied without tipping the box over? Note that as the box tips, the normal
