Answer:
angle minimum θ = 41.3º
Explanation:
For this exercise let's use Newton's second law in the condition of static equilibrium
N - W = 0
N = W
The rotational equilibrium condition, where we place the axis of rotation on the wall
We assume that counterclockwise rotations are positive
fr (l sin θ) - N (l cos θ) + W (l/2 cos θ) = 0
the friction force formula is
fr = μ N
fr = μ W
we substitute
μ m g l sin θ - m g l cos θ + mg l /2 cos θ = 0
μ sin θ - cos θ + ½ cos θ= 0
μ sin θ - ½ cos θ = 0
sin θ / cos θ = 1/2 μ
tan θ = 1/2 μ
θ = tan⁻¹ (1 / 2μ)
θ = tan⁻¹ (1 (2 0.57))
θ = 41.3º
