hey I've been trying this problem and any way i try i always seem to not have enough info i think I am missing a keyconcept to help get more info outa the problem, well ne way here is the question
Q: A uniform ladder rests against a frictionless vertical wall. the coefficient of static friction = 0.3. what isthe smallest angle at which the ladder will remain stationary?
alli have comeup with is that fs / Fn = .3 and that summation Fx = 0 = fs -F1 ;fs = F1 and Fn-w = 0 so Fn = weight
im not really sure how any of this relates to the other stuff, hopefully some one can help me out on this.
thanx in advance.
