A uniform chain of mass m and length I is kept on the table with a part of it overhanging (see figure). If the coefficient of friction between the table and the chain is 1//3 then find the maximum length of the chain that can overhang such that the chain remain in equilibrium.

A rough inclined plane is inclined at 30° to the horizontal as shown in the figure. A uniform chain of length L is partly on the inclined plane and partly hanging from the top of the incline. If the coefficient of friction between chain and inclined plane is H, the maximum length of the hanging part to prevent the chain from falling vertically is 30°
