Determining the magnitude of the friction force


A 10.0-kg uniform ladder that is 2.50 m long is placed against a smooth vertical wall and reaches to a height of 2.10 m, as shown in the figure. The base of the ladder rests on a rough horizontal floor whose coefficient of static friction with the ladder is 0.800. An 80.0-kg bucket of concrete is suspended from the top rung of the ladder, right next to the wall. What is the magnitude of the friction force that the floor exerts on the ladder?
