An uniform block of mass M, height h and base width a is kept on a enough to prevent any slipping between inclined plane and block. The angle of inclined plane is then increased. Determine the limiting value of θ so that the block does not tip over?
Component of gravity force are Mgsinθ and Mg cosθ
Momentum at point P (take clockwise direction positive)
Mgcosθa2−Mgsinθh2≥0
gcosθa2≥gsinθh2
ah≥tanθ
θ≤tan−1(ah)
