Determine what is the net torque acting on ladder

Reference no: EM13672448

A 9.19 meter ladder with a mass of 24.4 kilogram lies flat on the ground. A painter grabs the top end of the ladder and pulls straight upward with a force of 248 Newton. At the instant the top of the ladder leaves the ground, the ladder experiences an angular acceleration of 1.65 rad/s2 about an axis passing through the bottom end of the ladder. The ladder's center of gravity lies halfway between the bottom and top ends.

(a) Determine what is the net torque acting on ladder?

(b) Determine what is the ladder moment of inertia?
