A uniform ladder 5 m long and weighing 80 N leans against a smooth vertical wall. Its foot rests on a rough horizontal ground. The ladder makes an angle of 60° with the ground. A horizontal force of 30 N is applied to the ladder at a point 1 m above the ground, pushing the ladder towards the wall. If the coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the ground is \( \mu \), determine the minimum value of \( \mu \) required to keep the ladder in equilibrium (no slipping).
