Determine the tension in the crossbar of the ladder

Reference no: EM13654668

The drawing shows an A-shaped ladder. Both sides of the ladder areequal in length. This ladder is standing on a frictionlesshorizontal surface, and only the crossbar (which has a negligiblemass) of the “A” keeps the ladder from collapsing. Theladder is uniform and has a mass of 27.0 kg. Determine the tension in the crossbar of the ladder.
