What is Moments and Equilibrium of Rigid Bodies about?

A uniform rod AB of length 2a rests in equilibrium in a vertical plane against a smooth fixed horizontal surface, with one end A in contact. The other end B is attached to a fixed point D by a light inextensible string BD, where AD = 1– a. The rod is modelled as a uniform rod of mass m and the string as a light inextensible string. (a) Show that the tension in the string is mg(1 + a). (b) Given that the coefficient of friction between the rod and the surface is μ, find the maximum possible value of a for
