Coefficient of static friction among the ladder and ground

Reference no: EM13667678

A uniform ladder 10 m long and weighing 50 N rests against a smooth vertical wall. If the ladder is just on the verge of slipping when it makes a 50 degree angle by the ground, find the coefficient of static friction among the ladder and the ground.
