Calculate the normal force exerted by the floor on the ladder.
Q2: A 5.53 m, 203 kg uniform ladder rests against a smooth wall. The coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the ground is 0.545 , and the ladder makes a 34.9 ° angle with the ground.
How far up the ladder can an 812 kg person climb before the ladder begins to slip? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2
