...before the patient starts to slide?
An actual problem from my physics book (translated, but not well, because my Hebrew's not perfect):In an emergency situation with a great blood loss, the doctor orders to put up the patient in a [Something?] Trundleberg, which means to raise the legs of the bed to ensure maximum blood flow to the head. If the static resistance between the patient and the mattress is 1.8, what is the largest angle that you can put the bed at in regards to the floor before the patient starts to slide?
