Painter on a ladder
A painter weighing 600 N climbs a very light ladder propped against the side of a house at an angle of 60 degrees with the horizontal. The ladder is 5.00 m long. The coefficient of static friction between ladder and ground is .40. Assume friction between the ladder and the wall is negligible. How far up the ladder can the painter go before the ladder slips?
