Question
**Problem Description:**

If the uniform cabinet has a weight of 200 lb, and the coefficient of static friction between the cabinet and the ground is \( \mu_s = 0.14 \), determine the minimum force \( P \) that can make the cabinet slide. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Your answer must include one place after the decimal point and the proper unit. Take \( g = 32.2 \, \text{ft/s}^2 \).

**Diagram Analysis:**

- The diagram shows a person applying force \( P \) on a cabinet.
- The cabinet is rectangular in shape, and has the following dimensions:
  - Width of 2 ft, divided equally with 1 ft between points A and B.
  - Height is measured as 4 ft from the ground to the point of force application.
  - Center of gravity (G) is marked, with a horizontal distance of 3.5 ft.

**Your Answer:**

| Answer |  units  |
