A horizontal rod of length 508 cm is held aloft by friction against a brick wall on one end and on the other end by a rope of length 628cm, which itself is attached to the brick wall directly above where the rod touches the wall. The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the rod is 0.435. A ball of the same weight as the rod hangs from the rod.

What is the minimum distance ball must hang from the wall in order to the rod to stay stable?

A 5 m uniform ladder leans against a frictionless wall. The coefficient of friction between the ladder and the floor is 0.35. The base of the ladder is 4 m from the wall. If the ladder weighs 50 N, and a person is 3 m up the ladder (2 m from the top), what is the most this person could weigh without causing the ladder to slide? Show all work.
