Question: Beam ( A B ) has a negligible mass and thickness, and supports the 2 0 0 - kg uniform block as shown

Beam \( A B \) has a negligible mass and thickness, and supports the 200-kg uniform block as shown in (Figure 1). It is pinned at \( A \) and rests on the top of a post, having a mass of 20 kg and negligible thickness.

Part A
Determine the two coefficients of static friction at \( B \) and at \( C \) so that when the magnitude of the applied force is increased to 450 N , the post slips at both \( B \) and \( C \) simultaneously.
Express your answers using three significant figures separated by a comma.
\[
\mu_{B},\mu_{C}=\square
\]
Beam \ ( A B \ ) has a negligible mass and
