Can someone help me understand how we find the force exerted on the ladder by the floor? A uniform ladder 15m long is leaning against a frictionless wall at an angle of 53° above the horizontal. The weight of the ladder is 300 N. Ignoring the friction of the floor, what is the magnitude of the force exerted on the ladder by the floor? ANS: 302 N

Mountaineersoften use a rope to lower themselvesdown the face of a cliff (this is called rappelling).They do this with their body nearly horizontaland their feet pushing against the cliff. Suppose that an 82.0 kg climber,who is 1.90 m tall and has a center of gravity1.1 m from his feet, rappels down a verticalcliff with his body raised 35.0° above the horizontal.He holds the rope 1.40 m from his feet,and it makes a 25.0° angle with the cliff face.(a) What tension does his rope need to support?(b) Find the horizontal and vertical componentsof the force that the cliff face exerts on theclimber’s feet. (c) What minimum coefficientof static friction is needed to prevent the climber’sfeet from slipping on the cliff face if he hasone foot at a time against the cliff?

Consider the robotic arm shown below, made up of individual arms ?B and ?C. The weight ofthe arms AB and ?C are each 160 N, and the resultant weight force is shown to act through eacharm’s center of gravity as shown. You may assume that the center of gravity is occurring along themidpoint of each arm’s length. The robotic arm is picking up a package that weighs 40 N, and the40 N weight force acts through the package’s center of gravity at the location shown. a) A servomotor at point B is exerting a torque value to resist the rotation inducedby the weight force of the robotic arm BC and the weight force of the 40 N package.Calculate the required torque at point B necessary to resist the moment caused by therobotic arm BC and the 40 N package. Indicate the direction of the required torque (↺ or↻). Report your answer in N-m.b) A servomotor at point C is exerting a torque value to resist the rotation inducedby the weight force of the 40 N package. Calculate the required torque at point C…
In a hydraulic press, the small cylinder has the diameter of 8 cm while the larger piston has thediameter of 22 cm. If the force of 600 N is applied to the small piston, what is the force on thelarger piston, neglecting friction?
Rolex threw a certain type of rock into a freshwater lake. As a dare, one of his friend would need to retrieve the rock back to surface. How much force would his friend need if the rock has a mass of 100 kg and density of 2711 kg/m3?
A passenger is standing on a scale in an elevator. The building has a height of 500 feet, the passenger has a mass of 80 kg, and the scale has a mass of 7 kg. The scale sits on the floor of the elevator. (It is an Otis elevator, so we will label it as "O" so as not to confuse its forces with those caused by the earth.) You may take g = 10 N/kg. For doing this problem it might be useful to start by drawing free-body diagrams for the passenger and the scale.Consider the vertical forces acting on the passenger and the scale WE→P: The force of the earth pulling down on the passenger (weight). WE→S: The force of the earth pulling down on the scale (weight). NP→S: The force of the passenger pushing down on the scale (normal). NS→P: The force of the scale pushing up on the passenger (normal). NO→S: The force of the elevator pushing up on the scale (normal). NO→P: The force of the elevator pushing up on the passenger (normal) a) While it is accelerating downward, which of the forces in your…

1) A small steel block and a magnet rest on a horizontal frictionless table. The steel block weighs 0.07N and the magnet is fixed to the table. The force acting on the steel block by the magnet is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the steel block and the magnet. When the block is 26cm away from the magnet, the force becomes 0.145N. If the block starts its motion from rest at this position, what is the magnitude of the velocity of the block when it is 9.5cm away from the magnet?
