A 100 kg man is one fourth of the way up a 4.0 m ladder that is resting against a smooth, frictionless wall. The ladder has mass 25 kg and makes an angle of 56 degrees with the ground. What is the magnitude of the force of the wall on the ladder at the point of contact, if this force acts perpendicular to the wall and points away from the wall

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass

Ladder Length

Mass of Ladder

Angle

Generally the equation for Co planar forces is mathematically given by

Therefore

the chart show the masses and velocities of two colliding objects that stick together after a collision.

according to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the object after the collision is  

answer

1,500

kg • m/s.
