Find the normal reaction and friction forces on the ladder at its base.
A tennis ball of mass 57.0 g is held just above a basketball of mass 590 g.

(a) Find the magnitude of the basketballs velocity the instant before the basketball reaches the ground. (b) Assume that an elastic collision with the ground instantaneously reverses the velocity of the basketball so that it collides with the tennis ball just above it.
