The ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2 m from the bottom. The person is standing 3 m from the bottom. What are the magnitudes (in N) of the forces on the ladder at the top and bottom? top N bottom Narrow_forwardAnt-Man is walking around on top of a wooden plank that rests atop two thin, vertical steel pillars, which are bolted into the ground. Ant-Man's mass is m₁ = 80.0 kg, but he is small enough to be treated as a point particle. The plank (m₂ = 11.7 kg) has a length of L = 2.44 m, with the left end flush against the edge of the left pillar. The separation distance between the pillars is d 1.50 m. T Suppose that Ant-Man walks far enough out from the right pillar so that the plank is just about to start rotating. What will be the magnitude of the force from each of the pillars on the plank at this time? (Hint: begin your analysis by thinking about the torques acting on the plank, and note that the forces from the two pillars are not the same.) How far out from the right pillar could Ant-Man walk before the plank starts to rotate?arrow_forwardA 2.40-m-long, 500 kg steel uniform beam extends horizontally from the point where it has been bolted to the framework of a new building under construction.

- A diving board of length 4.00 m is supported at a point 1.50 m from the end, and a diver weighing 500 N stands at the free end. The horizontal diving board is supported at the point 1.50 meter away from its left end. A diver stands at the free end (the right end), which is 2.50 meters away from the point where the board is supported. The diving board is of uniform cross section and weighs 400 N.

A uniform beam of mass mb = 3.00 kg and length ℓ = 1.00 m supports blocks with masses m1 = 5.00 kg and m2 = 15.0 kg at two positions as shown. The beam rests on two triangular blocks, with point P a distance d = 0.300 m to the right of the center of gravity of the beam.

The wind has stopped blowing and the pole is to be cut down. Once the cut is across most of the thickness of the pole, the pole begins to tip over. As the pole tips, the bottom of the pole stays attached to the base by the remaining part of the pole that was not cut (but the torque from the base on the tipping pole is negligible). There is a nail (of negligible mass) on the pole located a distance x = 47 m from the cut. The length of the pole from the cut to the top is L=69m. Remember that the moment of inertia of a stick of mass m and length L about its end is (13)mL2. If theta= 67.5 degrees, what is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the nail?arrow_forward
