earn.minh Static Equilibrium You are cleaning out the gutters on your house. You place a ladder on the ground, and lean it against the gutter on your house. You have a mass of 60.0 kg. The ladder is 5.80 m long and has a mass of 13.0 kg. The ladder is at an angle 73.0 degrees (measured from the ground) The place the ladder touches the ground has static friction acting on it. However, the place where the ladder leans against the gutter has NO friction. There is a Normal Force at each location (think carefully about their directions!). The ladder's center of mass (and of gravity) is 1.60 m from the bottom of the ladder (measured along the ladder). You are standing 3.30 m up the ladder (measured from the bottom of the ladder along the ladder). Find the force of static friction acting on the bottom of the ladder (at the contact point with the ground). You do NOT need the coefficient of friction to solve this, but you do need all your force and torque equations. O Gutter Ladder House (Measured along the ladder) Center of Mass Your position of the ladder Ground Static Friction with the Ground Your answer should have the following: 1 Decimal Place Correct SI Unit Answers must be in the following format: Written out and NOT in scientific notation Acceptable: 278.40 Not Acceptable: 2.784 x 102 Answer: 127.5 x (113.1) N V
