Question:
(Hg. 11.22); you can ignore the friction torque at the pin. The ladder is raised into position by a force applied by a hydraulic piston at C. Point C is 8.0 m from A, and the force F exerted by the piston makes an angle of 40° with the ladder. What magnitude must F have to just lift the ladder off the support bracket at B1 Start with a free-body diagram of the ladder?
