A ladder rest...

Question

A ladder rests against a frictionless vertical wall,with its upper end 6m above the ground and the lower end 4m awayfrom the wall.The weight of the ladder is 500N and its C.G. at 1/3rd dis†an ce from the lower end.What will be the wall's reaction in newton?

Q. A ladder rests against a wall with its lower end at a distance x from the wall and its upper end at a height 2x above the floor. If the lower end slides through a distance y perpendicular to the edge between the floor and the wall, by how much does the upper end slide?

Q. A uniform ladder which is

5 m

long has a mass of

30 k g
