Force of friction that driveway exerts on bottom of ladder

Reference no: EM13543568

A house painter stands 3 m above the ground on a 5.4-m-long ladder that leans against the wall at a point 4.7 m above the ground. The painter weighs 635 N and the ladder weighs 158 N. Assuming no friction between the house and the upper end of the ladder, find the force of friction that the driveway exerts on the bottom of the ladder.
