10. One end of a 1.5 kg uniform stick that is 2.0 m long is placed against a vertical wall as shown. A light cord making an angle 0 with the stick holds the other end. The coefficient of static friction between the end of the stick and the wall is 0.500. a) What is the maximum value the angle 0 can have if the stick is to remain in equilibrium? Ө b) When 0 = 15° a body of the same weight as the stick is suspended from the stick a distance x from the wall. What is the minimum value of x for which the stick will remain in equilibrium?
