    A uniform wooden stick of mass $1.6 \mathrm{~kg}$ and length $l$ rests in an inclined manner on a smooth, vertical wall of height $h( < l)$ such that a small portion of the stick extends beyond the wall. The reaction force of the wall on the stick is perpendicular to the stick. The stick makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the wall and the bottom of the stick is on a rough focr. The reaction of the wall on the stick is equal in magnitude to the reaction of the floor on the st $ck$. The ratio $h / l$ and the frictional force $f$ at the bottom of the stick are $\left(g=10 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\right)$
