(c) What minimum coefficient of static friction is needed to prevent slipping?

ANSWER:

Solution 26E Step 1: a) Freebody diagram for the ball rolling down on a slope, Frictional force will be opposing the motion of the ball. So, the ball will move downward due to the influence of gravitational force. So, the frictional force will oppose this motion.
