To solve the problem of the ladder leaning against a frictionless wall, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a ladder of length 3 m, weighing 20 kg, leaning against a frictionless wall. The foot of the ladder is 1 m away from the wall. We need to find the reaction forces from the wall and the floor. ### Step 2: Draw a Free Body Diagram - Draw the ladder leaning against the wall. - Mark the forces acting on the ladder: ...
