Problem
A uniform ladder of length L and weight W rests against a smooth vertical wall, forming an angle of 60∘ with a rough horizontal floor. If the coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the floor is just enough to prevent slipping, the minimum value of the coefficient μ is
(a) 0.50
(b) 0.58
(c) 0.29
(d) 0.33
