Let us say that we have a ladder with its own length (L) and its own mass (m) this ladder just so happens to make a (θ) degree angle with a wall. The center of mass of this ladder is 1/3 of the way up from the bottom (it gets narrower towards the top). A person of mass M then decides to climb the ladder until he comes to the halfway point. Wall has no friction but the ground has on the ladder.. a) Draw this situation and label forces so you may set up the statics equations. b) Find the force on the ladder due to the ground (both x and y components) and the force on the ladder due to the wall.
