An 870 N firefighter, F_ff, stands on a ladder that is 8.00 m long and has a weight of 355 N, F_ladder. The weight of the ladder acts at its center, and the ladder is leaning against a smooth wall at an angle of 50.0° between the ladder and the ground. The firefighter stands at a point 6.30 m from the base of the ladder. The ground is not smooth and exerts a force, F_ground, on the ladder to keep it from slipping. Determine the forces that the wall puts on the ladder, F_wall, and that the ground puts on the ladder, F_ground.

Explanation:

Weight of the ladder is 355N

WL = 355N

The weight of the ladder acts at center of the ladder I.e at 4m from the bottom

Weight of firefighters is 870N

Wf = 870N

The fire fighter is at 6.3m from the bottom of the ladder.

N1 is the normal force exerted  by the wall

N2 is the normal force exerted  by the ground

Using Newton law

Check attachment

ΣFy = 0, since body is in equilibrium

N₂ - WL - Wf = 0

N₂ = WL + Wf

N₂ = 870 + 355

N₂ = 1225 N

This the normal force exerted by the ground on the wall.

Now to get N₁, let take moment about point A

So, before we take the moment we need to make sure that the forces are perpendicular to the plane(ladder), we need to resolve the weight of the ladder, firefighter and the normal of the wall to be perpendicular to the plane.

ΣMa = 0

Clockwise moment is equal to anti-clockwise moment

Moment Is the produce of force and perpendicular distance.

M = F×r

So,

WL•Cos50 × 4 + Wf•Cos50 × 6.3 —N₁•Sin50 × 8 = 0

355•Cos50 × 4 + 870•Cos50 × 6.3 =

N₁•Sin50 × 8

1825.52 + 3523.12 = 6.13N₁

6.13N₁ = 5348.64

N₁ = 5348.64/6.13

N₁ = 872.54 N.

The normal force exerted by the wall is 872.54N

waves moving from a fast medium to a slow medium will experience a reflection as light travels more slowly than red light. total internal reflection occurs when the critical angle is.
