You are working in an ice skating rink and have been asked to hang a new banner on the wall. Your friend is helping you so that the ladder does not collapse by exerting a force F_AL at an angle ϕ relative to the horizontal. The ladder has a length L and makes an angle of θ with respect to the vertical wall. You have a mass, m_Y, and are a horizontal distance x from the wall. The ladder has a mass of m_L. Because the wall is slick, and the ice on the floor is slick, the frictional forces acting on the ladder are negligible. Find a formula for the magnitude of the force that your friend must exert to keep the ladder from falling, in terms of the following variables: x,L,m_Y,m_L,θ,ϕ. Then use the following values to get a number for the magnitude of F_AL. θ = 30.3 degrees ϕ = 23.028 degrees x = 1.491 meters L = 7.1 meters m_Y = 86.0 kg m_L = 42.14 kg Find the magnitudes of: F_AL, normal force of the wall on the ladder (N_WL), and normal force of the floor on the ladder (N_FL).
A rigid, vertical rod with a mass of 2.7 kg simply rests on the floor and is held in place by static friction. The coefficient of static friction between the rod and the floor is 1/6.

You gave a friend an outrageously large birthday present of mass m=29.7 kg. They are excitedly holding it using both hands on opposite sides of the box. Each hand applies a normal force of equal magnitude to each side of the box. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between their hands and the paper are μS = 0.61 and μK = 0.23, respectively. The box is on the verge of slipping but they just manage to hold it. BR HAND y HAND X What is the magnitude of the normal force applied by EACH of their hands to the box? Provide your answer in Newtons to one decimal place.

A girl swings a 0.190 kg rock attached to a taut string in a circle around her head; her hand holds the end of the string above her head, and the string angles down slightly. The string is massless and 0.680 m long. A coordinate system lies with its origin at the location where the string comes out of the girl's hand. The positive z-axis points vertically upwards, the positive y- axis points horizontally towards the right, and the positive x-axis points out of the screen. At a certain instant, the rock makes 3.25 revolutions per second (rev/s) in a counterclockwise direction, as seen from above. The string is inclined at an angle of 0 = 12.4° below the xy-plane, and the projection of the string onto the xy- plane makes an angle o = 36.8° with the positive x-axis. What is the tangential velocity vector v in meters per second (m/s) at this instant? Report your answer using ijk unit vector notation. i = v, i + vyj+ vz k m/s
A system comprised blocks, a light frictionless pulley, and connecting ropes is shown in the figure. The B block has a mass of 9.3 kg and is on a perfectly smooth horizontal table. The surfaces of the A block, which has a mass of 8.2 kg, are rough, with μk=μk= 0.25 between the block and the table. If the C block with mass 9.9 kg accelerates downward when it is released, find its acceleration.
