a ladder whose length L is 12 m and whose mass is 45 kg rests against a wall. Its upper end is a distance h of 9.3 m above the ground, as in the Figure. The center of gravity of the ladder is one-third of the way up the ladder. A firefighter whose mass M is 72 kg climbs halfway up the ladder. Assume that the wall, but not the ground is frictionless. What forces are exerted on the ladder by the wall and by the ground?
