A uniform ladder 5.30 m long rests against a frictionless, vertical wall with its lower end 3.10 m from the wall. The ladder weighs 157 N . The coefficient of static friction between the foot of the ladder and the ground is 0.430. A painter weighing 739 N climbs slowly up the ladder.

How far along the ladder can the painter climb before the ladder starts to slip?

A uniform ladder stands on a rough floor and rests against a frictionless wall as shown in the figure. 2 58 1 Since the floor is rough, it exerts both a normal force N1 and a frictional force f1 on the ladder. However, since the wall is frictionless, it exerts only a normal force N2 on the ladder. The ladder has a length of L = 4.5 m, a weight of WL = 63.5 N, and rests against the wall...
