B Problem 4: A uniform rod AB of length L and weight W is placed against a wall as shown. The other end of the rod is supported by a cord mounted to the wall at point C (at a distance L above the contact point between the rod and the wall). Assuming that the coefficient of static friction is determine the minimum angle 0 for which the rod will remain static. Solution: 1 0 2 atan- B Problem 4: A uniform rod AB of length L and weight W is placed against a wall as shown.
