A
14-foot ladder is perched on a vertical pole. The ladder is sliding
so that the base of the ladder is moving away from the pole at a
rate of 2 ft / min. How fast is the angle between the top of the
ladder and the vertical pole changing, the instant the top of the
ladder is 8 feet off the ground?

A ladder is leaning against a vertical wall, and both ends of
the ladder are at the point of slipping. The coefficient of
friction between the ladder and the horizontal surface is μ1 =
0.205 and the coefficient of friction between the ladder and the
wall is μ2 = 0.153. Determine the maximum angle with the vertical
the ladder can make without falling on the ground.

A ladder is leaning against a vertical wall, and both ends of
the ladder are at the point of slipping. The coefficient of
friction between the ladder and the horizontal surface is ?1 =
0.215 and the coefficient of friction between the ladder and the
wall is ?2 = 0.203. Determine the maximum angle with the vertical
the ladder can make without falling on the ground.

A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom
of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 1.4 ft/s, how
fast is the angle between the ladder and the ground changing when
the bottom of the ladder is 8 ft from the wall? (That is, find the
angle's rate of change when the bottom of the ladder is 8 ft from
the wall.)

A ladder having a uniform density and a mass m rests
against a frictionless vertical wall, making angle 48.0° with the
horizontal. The lower end rests on a flat surface where the
coefficient of static friction is µs = 0.370. A window
cleaner with mass M = 2m attempts to climb the
ladder. Given a ladder length of L, what fraction of the
length of the ladder (x / L) will the worker have reached
when the ladder begins to...

A uniform ladder of length L and mass m leans against a
frictionless vertical wall, making an angle of 57° with the
horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the ladder
and the ground is 0.42. If your mass is four times that of the
ladder, how high can you climb before the ladder begins to
slip?
