In the previous problem, suppose the rod has a mass of 2.3 kg and the coefficient of static friction is 1/7. (a) Find the greatest force F that can be applied at the midpoint of the rod without causing it to slip. (b) Show that if F is applied 1/8 of the way down from the top of the rod, it will never slip at all, no matter how large the force F.
