One end of a uniform 4.00-m-long rod of weight Fg is supported by a cable at an angle of = 37 with the rod. The other end rests against the wall, where it is held by friction as shown in Figure P12.23. The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the rod is s= 0.500. Determine tile minimum distance x from point A at which an additional object, also with the same weight Fg can be hung without causing the rod to slip at point A.
