To get up on the roof, a person (mass 85.0 kg) places a 6.20 m aluminum ladder (mass 15.0 kg) against the house on a concrete pad with the base of the ladder 2.00 m from the house. The top of the ladder rests against a plastic rain gutter, which we can assume to be frictionless. The center of mass of the ladder is 2.00 m from the base, as measured along the ladder. The person is standing on the ladder 3.00 m from the base, as measured along the ladder. Find the normal reaction and friction forces (in N) on the ladder at its base. (Enter the magnitudes.)

Consider the system formed by a body on a horizontal string embedded at both ends, as shown in the figure. Consider the corresponding approximations for the body of mass m = 0.5 kg describe a M.A.S vertically about the embedment height of the rope. The tension in the rope is uniform and equal to T 50 N and the distance between the embedment points and the suspended body is d = 5 m. If the body is displaced 10 cm downward from its equilibrium position and then released, find: a) The period of the system.
Packaging and distribution system in a factory, through a spring and conveyor beltreferences As given by the figure, the boxes are left on the spring and pushed onto the conveyor belt. The boxes are originally located on uncompressed broadcast h up. When they are left, boxes, each with a mass of m, compress the spring as much as ΔL. All potential energy of the box in the spring is converted into elastic energy. calculate ΔL as [m] for M = 5 kg, spring constant k = 262 N/M, h = 0.85 m, and gravity acceleration g = 9.81 m/s2.
