a) Use the free-body diagram shown in (Figure
2) and write the equilibrium equation for the moments about
the point of contact.
Express your answer in terms of one or more
of PP, WW, HH, LL, NN, FF,
and θθ.
b) What is the maximum magnitude of PP that can
be applied before tipping would occur, assuming the block does not
slip?
c) What is the maximum magnitude of PP that does
not cause motion of the block?
