Serway & Jewett β Static Equilibrium and Elasticity: Problem 44
Consider the rectangular cabinet of Problem 36 shown in Figure P12.36, but with a force \(\vec{F}\) applied horizontally at the upper edge. (a) What is the minimum force required to start to tip the cabinet? (b) What is the minimum coefficient of static friction required for the cabinet not to slide with the application of a force of this magnitude? (c) Find the magnitude and direction of the minimum force required to tip the cabinet if the point of application can be chosen anywhere on the cabinet.
