Q2] A 26 ft ladder weighs 50lb and is placed against a smooth vertical wall with its lower end 10 ft from the wall. The coefficient of friction between the ladder and the floor is 0.3. Determine the frictional force at A acting on the ladder. The mass center of the ladder is assumed to be at its midpoint.
