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 to slide. (a) Draw a complete FBD of the system. Find (b) the frictional force on the floor, (b) the frictional force on the wall and (c) the horizontal distance X

A worker is shoving boxes up a rough plank inclined at an angle 27o above the horizontal. The coefficient of friction increases with the distance x along the plank: μ=Ax, where 0.05 is a positive constant and the bottom of the plank is at x=0. (for this plank the coefficient of kinetic and static friction are equal). The worker shoves a 2 kg box up the plank so that it leaves the bottom of the plank moving at a speed...
