Sweeping is a permitted activity on Shabbat. A broom is a utensil for a permitted purpose — movable freely.
Question 2
A full-size loft ladder — may you move it on Shabbat?
Loft ladders are too large and permanent to qualify as "utensils." They're classified as building components — muktzeh.
Question 3
A corpse is in the sun and will decompose. What do you do?
Close the eyes (permitted — that's care, not moving). Place on sand for cooling. Don't move it directly. If it must be moved, use an indirect method (a loaf of bread, another permitted item).
Question 4
How can you move a corpse on Shabbat when absolutely necessary?
The indirect method: place something permitted (like bread) on the corpse and carry the bread — the corpse moves along with it. You're technically carrying the permitted item.
Question 5
Straw is in front of your animal on Shabbat. Can you rake it closer?
Raking straw = sorting/selecting (borer). Don't rake it. If the animal can eat directly from where the straw lies, that's fine — no raking needed.
