thanks for your reply,i have calculated the vertical forces to be equal to 80/Cos29=91.47N
Horizontal 91.47*Sin29=44.35N
Do you know whether these are correct?
In regards to the equation are they Newtons second and third laws?
Homework Statement
A)A ladder of weight 80N rests against a smooth wall at an angle of 29 degrees to the vertical with its end on a rough horizontal floor.If the ladder is in equillibrium calculate the reaction (magnitude and direction) of the ground and the wall.
Bi)a man of weight 80N...
