Ladder Against a Wall, 1K10.20
Topic and Concept:
Applications of Newton's Laws, 1K10. Dynamic Torque
pira200 Listed

Cabinet: Mechanic (ME)
Bay: C7
Abstract:

Important Setup Notes:
- N/A
Setup and Procedure:
- Vertically mount a 3/4" rod to a lecture bench with a table clamp.
- Another clamp attached to this rod will hold the 1/2" rod horizontally.
- There are two parallel holes on one end of the wall (board). The 1/2" rod will slide through these to hold up the wall.
- Adjust the height of the rod by sliding the clamp up and down the vertical rod. The height needs to be at the point where the bottom wall meets the table top.
- Lean the ladder against the wall at some angle with respect to the ground. The smaller the angle, the more unstable the ladder will be as we move the weight up the rungs (next step).
- Hang the weight off the bottom rung, and see if the ladder stays in place. If it does, keep moving the weight up rung by rung until either the ladder slides to the ground or the top rung is reached.
- If desired, repeat the process for a different angle or using a heavier/lighter weight.
Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:
- N/A
Discussion:
A ladder against a wall forms a rotational system. Typically we want this system to be static, especially when there's a person climbing the ladder (i.e. we don't want the ladder to slide out from under the person). All of the forces acting on the ladder are represented in the free body diagram below.
The ladder will remain in place as long as the net force and net torque acting on it are zero. As the weight moves up the ladder, the torque due to this weight increases causing the torque due to the static friction on the feet of the ladder to increase. The maximum amount of static friction that can be supplied is equal to μS·N where μ denotes the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force due to the ground acting on the feet of the ladder. Once the maximum is reached, and additional torque due to the weight will cause the ladder to slip out away from the wall.
