When x exceeds some critical distance the slider will lock


The diagram below shows a 1" long slider running on a rod with an applied force at a distance X from the centerline of the rod. When X exceeds some critical distance the slider will "lock" and no longer move regardless of the force applied. If the coefficient of friction for the slider bearing is 0.1, what is the critical value for X in inches?
