Angle theta with the wall-find the tension in the string

Reference no: EM13679151

A ladder of length b and weight W rests on a smooth floor and leans against a smooth vertical wall, the lower end of the ladder being attached by a string to a point on the wall a height h above the floor. If the ladder makes an angle theta with the wall, find the tension in the string.

Summary of the three laws of thermodynamics : What is the full text (and possibly the source) of the summary of the three laws of thermodynamics that goes something along the lines of "Can't break even, can't win and can't even stop playing the game"?

Describe acceptance ratio as percentage of accepted trials : Describe "acceptance ratio" as a percentage of accepted trials. Simulation shows that acceptance ratio is higher on higher temperature (behave as increasing function of temperature).

Decoders during environmental interaction : Quasiparticles theoretically can form braids on a 2D surface. The braids apparently are quite stable for reasonably long periods, allowing a superposition state more time before it decoders during environmental interaction. This would be a big step i..

Decide an equilibrium value for theta : A uniform heavy bar AB of length 2b rests against a smooth vertical wall at A and over a smooth fixed rod C, which is situated at a distance a from the wall. Take b>a. Decide an equilibrium value for theta.
