Question

Physics

A ladder of length L = 2.8 mand mass m = 16 kg rests on a floor with coefficient of staticfriction ?s = 0.51. Assume the wall isfrictionless.

1)

What is the normal force the floor exerts on the ladder?
2) What is the minimum angle theladder must make with the floor to not slip?
3) A person with mass M = 69 kg nowstands at the very top of the ladder. What is thenormal force the floor exerts on the ladder?

4) What is the minimum angle to keep the ladder from sliding?
