A 200-lb man walks up an inclined plank of negligible weight which makes an angle of 70o with the wall. The coefficient of static friction between the floor and the ladder is 0.3 and that between the ladder and the wall is 0.2. When the man is at a horizontal distance X from the foot of the plank, the plank would begin toslide.
(a) Draw a complete FBD of the system.
Find (b) the frictional force on the floor, and the frictional force on the wall and
(c) the horizontal distance X.
A particle, of mass 6 kg, is in equilibrium on a rough horizontal plane under a force of magnitude T N, which acts at an angle 15 above the horizontal. Given the coefficient of friction between the particle and the rough horizontal plane is 0.35, what values could T take?
