14.0 m uniform ladder weighing 490 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 65.0°-angle with the horizontal. (a)

Find the horizontal and vertical forces (in N) the ground exerts on the base of the ladder when an 850-N firefighter has climbed 4.10 m along the ladder from the bottom. horizontal

Answer:

The horizontal reaction force is 230.3 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length l= 14.0 m

Weight of ladder F = 490 N

Angle = 65°

Weight of firefighter F'= 850 N

Height l'= 4.10 m

Suppose horizontal force magnitude N direction vertical force magnitude N direction

We need to calculate the horizontal reaction force

Horizontal reaction force = normal reaction from wall

Vertical reaction force = weight of ladder +weight of man

F=490+850

F=1340\ N

We need to calculate the moment about bottom is zero

N\times l\sin\theta=F\times\dfrac{l}{2}\cos\theta+F'\times l'\cos\theta

Put the value in the equation

N\times14\sin(65)=490\times7\cos(65)+850\times4.10\cos(65)

N=\dfrac{490\times7\cot(65)+850\times4.10\cot(65)}{14}

N=230.3\ N

Hence, The horizontal reaction force is 230.3 N.

according to Newton's third law what is the equal and opposite force to the downward force of gravity pulling on a man standing
Fudgin [204]

When you're talking about gravity, it's easy to identify the equal
opposite forces.

Gravity ALWAYS produces an equal pair of opposite forces. 
They both act between the centers of the two objects, one in
each direction.

Consider the equal pair of opposite gravitational forces between
you and the Earth.  One force acts on you, and draws you toward
the center of the Earth.  We call that force "your weight". 
The other one acts on the Earth, and draws it toward the center
of you.  Hardly anybody ever talks about that one, but the two
forces are equal ... your weight on Earth is equal to the Earth's
weight on you !

Why is Florida more vulnerable to the effects of climate change? ​
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of Florida, the land surface is also sinking. If the oceans and atmosphere continue to warm, sea level along the Florida coast is likely to rise one to four feet in the next century. Rising sea level submerges wetlands and dry land, erodes beaches, and exacerbates coastal flooding.

If you add 1 proton to Carbon, it will no longer be Carbon, it will be ________________.
Whitepunk [10]

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Adding one proton to a carbon atom makes Nitrogen.

A quick introspection on atoms:

  • An atom is made up of three fundamental particles.
  • They are protons, neutrons and electrons.
  • The protons are positively charged and the neutrons do not carry any charges.
  • Electrons are negatively charged.

The difference between an atom and another is the number of protons in them. This is the atomic number.

The periodic table of element is a list of elements arranged based on the number of protons they have. Every element on the table has unique number of protons which makes it differ from another.

  • Atoms do not readily lose their protons because they are held by nuclear forces in the nucleus of an atom.

When an element gains a proton, it becomes another element.

    Carbon has proton number of 6

 If a proton is added to it, it becomes 7

This is the proton or atomic number of nitrogen.
