We would like to know the velocity of the block when it reaches some position x. finding this requires an integration. however, acceleration is defined as a derivative with respect to time, which leads to integrals with respect to time, but the force is given as a function of position. to get around this, use the chain rule to find an alternative definition for the acceleration ax that can be written in terms of vx and dvxdx. this is a purely mathematical exercise; it has nothing to do with the forces given in the problem statement.

This problem has been solved! see the answera non-uniform fire escape ladder is 6.0m long whenextended to the icy alley below. it is held at the top by africtionless pivot, and there is neglibible frictional force fromthe icy surface at the bottom. the ladder weighs 250n, and it'scenter of gravity is 2.0m along the ladder from the bottom. amother and child of total weight 750n are on the ladder 1.5m fromthe pivot. the ladder makes an angle θ with the horizontal.find the magnitude and direction ofa) the force exerted by the icy alley on the ladderb) the force exerted by the ladder on the pivotc) do your answers in part a and b depend on the angle?
