A15 m ladder whose weight is 312 n is placed against a smooth vertical wall. a person whose weight is 579 n stands on the ladder a distance 2.4 m up the ladder. the foot of the ladder rests on the floor 6.45 m from the wall.
a) calculate the force exerted by the wall. answer in units of n.
b) calculate the normal force exerted by the floor on the ladder. answer in units of n.
Answers: 1
= Force applied by the wall on the ladder 
= weight of the person = 579 N 
= weight of the ladder = 312 N

Two cannon balls weighing 18 kg and 24 kg are chained together and fired horizontally with a velocity of 165 m/s from the top of a 21-m wall. the chain breaks during the flight of the cannonballs and the 18-kg cannonball strikes the ground at t = 1.5 s, at a distance of 240 m from the foot of the wall, and 7 m to the right of the line of fire. determine the position of the other cannonball at that instant. neglect the resistance of the air.
