A large wood beam weighing 800 N is supported by two posts as shown. If an unthinking manweighing 700 N were to walk on the overhang portion of the beam, how far can he go from pointA before the beam tips over? (Assume the beam is resting on the two supports with no physicalconnection.)2mWMAN= 100N3mIm

A ladder with a length of 5.0 m and a weight of 650N is placed so its base is on the ground 4.0 m from a vertical frictionless wall, and its tip rests 3.0 m up the wall. The ladder remains in this position only because of the static friction force between the ladder and the ground. You, with a weight of 500 N, are standing on the ladder at a horizontal distance of 1.10 m from the wall. Assume the mass of the ladder is uniformly distributed. (a) Find the magnitude of the upward normal force applied by the ground on the ladder. (b) Find the magnitude of the horizontal normal force applied by the wall on the ladder. N (c) Determine the minimum possible coefficient of static friction for the ladder-ground interaction, for the ladder to remain at rest.
