Q

Steps for a ladder/beam resting against wall equilibrium questions

A
  • Only label vertical/horizontal forces
  • Label Normal Reactions
  • Label Frictions (Remember separate frictions for floor/wall so Fa and Fb)
  • Label Weights
  • Label Distances
  • Label Alternate Angles
  • Resolve Vertically
