Question: A body of weight \(W\) is dragged along a horizontal plane by means of a force \(P\) whose line of action makes an angle with the plane. The magnitude of the force is given by the equation
\[P=\frac{m W}{m \sin \theta+\cos \theta}\]where \(m\) denotes the coefficient of friction. For what value of \(\theta\) is the pull a minimum?
