Blocks 1 & 2 are connected by a string. Block 1 is on an incline & has a mass of 5.4kg. Block 2 is hanging from the string & has a mass of 2.1kg. The coefficient of friction is 0.22 between all surfaces.

1: What is the minimum angle "theta" can be while keeping the blocks motionless?

2: What is the maximum angle "theta" can be while keeping the blocks motionless?

Given:
M1 = 5.4kg
M2 = 2.1kg
Max. Theta = ?
Min. Theta = ?
Friction = 0.22
