Question:
A uniform stationary ladder of length L and mass Mleans against a smooth vertical wall, while its bottom legs rest on a rough horizontal floor. The coefficient of static. friction between floor and ladder is u. The ladder makes an angle with respect to the floor. A painter of mass 1/2M stands on the ladder a distance d from its base. What is the largest value for d, in centimeters, such that the ladder will not slip? Assume that the ladder is 3.5 m long, the coefficient of friction is 0.55, the I at an angle of 43.5°, and the ladder has a mass of 75 kg.
