Homework Statement
A block of mass 3.00 kg is pushed up against a wall by a force P that makes and angle θ=50.0° with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the wall is 0.250. (a) Determine the possible values for the magnitude of P that allows the block to remain stationary. (b) Describe what happens if P has a larger value and what happens if it is smaller. (c) Repeat parts a and b, assuming the force makes an angle of θ=13.0° with the horizontal.
