Uniform ladder of mass-length leans against frictionles wall

Reference no: EM13652282

A uniform ladder of mass (m) and length (L) leans against a frictionless wall. If the coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the ground is 0.51, what is the minimum angle (theta) between the ladder and the floor at which the ladder will not slip.
