Find the minimum angle,between the ladder and the ground

Reference no: EM13277840

A uniform ladder of length L and mass 5 kg rests against a smooth, frictionless, vertical wall. The coefficient of static friction between the ladder and ground is 0.4.

a.) Draw a force diagram indicating all the forces acting on the ladder and where they are applied.

b.) Find the minimum angle,between the ladder and the ground at which the ladder will not slip.
