The drawing shows an A-shaped ladder. Both sides of the ladder are equal in length. This ladder is standing on a frictionless horizontal surface, and only the crossbar (which has a negligible mass) of the " A " keeps the ladder from collapsing. The ladder is uniform and has a mass of 15.2Kg. Det k mine the tension in the crossbar of the ladder.
A uniform ladder whose length is 6.0 m and whose weight is 43O N leans against a frictionless vertical wall. The coefficient of static friction between the level ground and the foot of the ladder is 0.42. What is the greatest distance the foot of the ladder can be placed from the base of the wall without the ladder immediately slipping?

A uniform beam of length L = 11.7 meters and mass of 109.3 kg is pinned at one end and is being supported by a wire as shown. The wire is connected to the beam x = 3.3 meters from the pin. A person of mass 81.6 kg is standing all the way out on the edge of the beam. If θ = 17.3 degrees and φ = 79.4 degrees, what is the tension in the wire?
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?
