The system is at rest. The block of steel weighs 800 N. The coefficient of static friction between the block and table is 0.3. What maximum weight can the steel ball have so the block will still remain at rest?

please identify the given, formula and solution..thank you!.

What is the system? How does it look like?

If we have a block connected over a massless and frictionless pulley to a ball... well then.

W(ball)=uW(block)= 0.3 x 800=240 N

Have fun

Can you draw a picture or something? I don't understand the problem.
