A house painter stands 3.00 m above the ground on a 5.00-m-long ladder that leans against the wall at a point 4.70 m above the ground. The painter weighs 663 N and the ladder weighs 108 N. Painter Ladder Driveway Wall 4.70 m 3.00 m Assuming no friction between the house and the upper end of the ladder, find the force of friction that the driveway exerts on the bottom of the ladder. If the force of friction is away from the wall, enter a negative value and if the force of friction is toward the wall, enter a positive value.

Two children of mass 21 kg and 26 kg sit balanced on a seesaw with the pivot point located at the center of the seesaw. If the children are separated by a distance of 2 m, at what distance from the pivot point is the small child sitting in order to maintain the balance? m
Ladder Slip? A 3.0-m-long ladder leans against a frictionless wall at an angle of 60°. What is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction with the ground, that prevents the ladder from slipping? \L=3.0 m dz Center of mass • net = 0 about this point. 60° Gravity acts at di the center of mass. ***** Static friction prevents slipping.
In exercise physiology studies, it is sometimes important to determine the location of a person's center of gravity. This can be done with the arrangement shown in the figure below. -2.00 m A light plank rests on two scales that read F 91 = 440 N and F 92 = 320 N. The scales are separated by a distance of 2.00 m. How far from the woman's feet is her center of gravity? m
