A uniform rope of length I lies on a table. If the coefficient of friction is 'μ', then the maximum length l1 of the part of this rope which can overhang from the edge of the table without sliding down is:

a
b
1μ+1
c
μlμ+1
d
μlμ−1

detailed solution

Correct option is C

weight of the hanging part = frictional force on the tableif l1part is hanging its weight =MLl1g L-l1 is on the table and frictional force due to this = μMLL-l1g MLl1g=μMLL-l1g l1=μL-l1  l11+μ=μL l1=μL1+μ
