6) A 15 kg uniform ladder makes 60 degrees with the ground and a worker with 60 kg mass climbed to the top. The length of the ladder is 1.2 meters and it is uniform. The other end of the ladder is on a wall without friction. Draw the free body diagram show all the forces. What should be the minimum friction coefficient (mu) on the ground so that the ladder won’t slide. (Calculate the Normal force of the ground, Friction on the wall and the reaction force of the wall. Show work)

A uniform 6.0-m-long ladder of mass 15.0 kg leans against a smooth wall (so the force exerted by the wall, F→W, is perpendicular to the wall). The ladder makes an angle of 25.0 ∘ with the vertical wall, and the ground is rough. Determine the coefficient of static friction at the base of the ladder if the ladder is not to slip when a 77.0-kg person stands three-fourths of the way up the ladder.
