A 5.2-m ladder rests against a wall as shown. The ladder has a mass of 27.6 kg. A 56.3-kg person stands on the ladder at a distance of 3.6 m from the bottom of the ladder. The foot of the ladder is 1.9 m from the bottom of the wall. Assume there is no friction between the ladder and the wall so that the force of the wall on the ladder is acting only in the horizontal direction. However, there is a friction force between the ladder and the ground. 1.) What is the force, in N, exerted by the wall on the ladder?
