Hello to all...can anybody help me set up this problem
An 8.00-m, 200-N uniform ladder rests against a smooth wall. The coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the ground is 0.600, and the ladder makes a 50.0 degree angle with the ground. How far up the ladder can an 800-N person climb before the ladder begins to slip?[/i]
Thank you very much :rolleyes:
