A very light 1.00-m wire consists of two segments of equal length, one of steel (Young's modulus is 2.00 × 1011 N/m2) and one of brass (Young's modulus is 9.0 × 1010 N/m2). The steel segment is 1.50 mm in diameter, and the brass segment has twice this diameter. When a weight w is hung from the ceiling by this wire, the steel segment stretches by 1.10 mm. Find the weight w.

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, as shown in the figure. What is the magnitude of the friction force that the floor exerts on the ladder?
