$A$ uniform chain of length $L$ which hangs partially from a table,is kept in equilibrium by friction. The maximum length that can hang without slipping is $l$. Then,the coefficient of friction between the table and the chain is:

  • A
    $\frac{l}{L}$
  • B
    $\frac{l}{L + l}$
  • C
    $\frac{l}{L - l}$
  • D
    $\frac{L}{L + l}$
