A 180 lb man climbs at the middle of a 25 Ib ladder leaned against the wall. The top portion of the ladder is 24 ft from the ground and its bottom is 6 ft from the wall. Assuming smooth wall and a stopper at the bottom of the ladder to prevent slipping, determine the reaction at the wall and at the bottom of the ladder. *

2) Ray decides to paint the outside of his uncle's house. He uses a 4.0-m-long board supported by vertical cables at each end to paint the second floor. The board has a mass of 21 kg. Ray (70 kg) stands 1.0 m from the left cable. What are the forces that each cable exerts on the board? Ability A1: Can extract the information from representation correctly Needs Work Some of the information is extracted correctly, but not all of the information. For example, physical quantities are represented with numbers there are no units. Or directions are missing. Subscripts for physical quantities are either missing or inconsistent. Adequate All necessary information has been extracted correctly and written in a comprehensible way. Objects, systems, physical quantities, initial and final states, etc. are identified correctly and units are correct. Physical quantities have consistent subscripts. Adequate The diagram contains no errors and each force is labeled so that it is clearly understood what…

Two window washers, Bob and Joe, are on a 3.00-m-long, 350-N scaffold supported by two cables attached to its ends. Bob weighs 780 N and stands 1.00 m from the left end, as shown in the figure below. Two meters from the left end is the 500-N washing equipment. Joe is 0.500 m from the right end and weighs 900 N. Given that the scaffold is in rotational and translational equilibrium, what are the forces on each cable? left cable _____ kN right cable _____kN Two window washers, Bob and Joe, stand on a scaffold. The scaffold is 3.00 m long and is supported by two cables with one on each end. Bob stands 1.00 m from the left end of the scaffold. The bucket is 2.00 m from the left end of the scaffold and Joe stands 0.500 m from the right of the scaffold.

You set up a Halloween prank by attaching a small board to a hinge above your front door. The far end of the board is held up by a cable that can be released by remote control. You place a spooky spider on the board that is dropped on unsuspecting trick-or-treaters when you release the cable. The drawing below shows the set-up. cable 40° Hinge 60 ст You use a board that is 60 cm long and the cable makes an angle of 40 degrees with the board when the board is held horizontally. You place the spider a distance of r = 37 cm from the hinge. The board has a mass of 2.2 kg and the spider has a mass of 1.6 kg. The hinge applies both a horizontal force and a vertical force. You will be asked to determine the direction of both of these forces (left, right, up, down). What is the magnitude of the tension in the cable in Newtons? T = What is the magnitude and direction of the horizontal force from the hinge? Enter a positive number for the magnitude. Fh = Direction ---Select--- What is the…
