Chapter 12, Problem 26(choose chapter or problem)
A uniform sphere of radius R is supported by a rope attached to a vertical wall, as shown in Fig. 12.18. The rope joins the sphere at a point where a continuation of the rope would intersect a horizontal line through the spheres center a distance 1 2 R beyond the center, as shown. Whats the smallest possible value for the coefficient of friction between wall and sphere?
