Problem 6. (10 points)

The figure below depicts two triangular blocks with unique frictional properties. The coefficient

of static friction between block B and block A is μ = 0.15 but the coefficient of both static and

kinetic friction between block B and the floor C is 0. If the two triangular blocks both have the

same mass m = 1 kg and the same geometry with = 30° determine the largest value of force P

for which there would be no slipping between the blocks.
