Neco 2018 Further Mathematics Question 22
Practice objective / multiple choice question 22 from the 2018 Neco Further Mathematics examination.
A uniform ladder 5 m long and weighing 120 N rests against a smooth vertical wall. Its foot is 1.5 m from the wall on a rough horizontal ground with coefficient of static friction \(\mu = 0.2\). A person weighing 500 N climbs the ladder and stops at a distance \(x\) metres from the foot. Determine the greatest possible value of \(x\) (in metres, correct to two decimal places) for which the ladder remains in equilibrium without slipping.
