Can someone explain this question to me? A 40-kg uniform ladder that is 5.0 m long is placed against a smooth wall at a height of h = 4.0 m, as shown in the figure. The base of the ladder rests on a rough horizontal surface whose coefficient of static friction with the ladder is 0.70. An 80-kg bucket is suspended from the top rung of the ladder, just at the wall. What is the magnitude of the force that the ladder exerts on the wall?

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 740 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of theta= 26 with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is uk = 0.17. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. the block's initial mechanical energy is 9.472 j. b. if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance l in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
