A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 0.6 ft/s, how fast (in rad/s) is the angle (in radians) between the ladder and the ground changing when the bottom of the ladder is 8 ft from the wall? (That is, find the angle's rate of change when the bottom of the ladder is 8 ft from the wall.) Wall rad/s 10 Ground
