Draw a diagram indicating all the forces acting on the ladder, and state
what each force represents. Also show the direction of the x- and y-axes
you will use. (Hint: there are 2 forces acting at the top of the ladder, 2
forces acting on the bottom of the ladder and 1 force acting at its
centre.)

A ladder of length 2L and mass M is positioned on level ground leaning
against a wall such that the angle between the ladder and the horizontal is
a. The coefficient of static friction between the ladder and the wall and
between the ladder and the ground is static
0.66. The centre of mass of
the ladder is halfway along it.
