A damp washcloth is hung over the edge of a table to dry. Thus, part (mass `= m_("on")` ) of the washcloth rests on the table and part (mass = `m_("off")` ) does not. The coefficient of static friction between the table and the washcloth is 0.20. Determine the inverse of masximum fraction `(m_("off"))/(m_("on") + m_("off"))` that can hang over the edge without causing the whole washcloth of slide off the table.

`T = lambda xg` ….(2)
`:. (x)/(l) = (mu) /(mu + 1)`
