Chapter 18.5, Problem 43P
A uniform ladder having a weight of 30 lb is released from rest when it is in the vertical position. If it is allowed to fall freely determine the angle θ at which the bottom end A starts to slide to the right of A. For the calculation, assume the ladder to be a slender rod and neglect friction at A.

The double inclined plane supports two blocks A and B, each having a weight of 7 lb as shown below. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the blocks and the plane is 0.09, determine the acceleration of each block.
The 200-lb man walks up the inclined plank of negligible weight. The coefficients of static friction at A and B are 0.3 and 0.2, respectively. Determine the distance x at which the plank would begin to slide.
The 0.31-kg mass slides on a frictionless wire that lies in the vertical plane. The spring attached to the mass has a free length of 80 mm and stiffness of 0.13 N/mm. Calculate the smallest value of the distance b so that the mass will reach the end of the wire at B after being released from rest at A.
