Question
![### Problem Statement
A teacher moves an 18.3 kg desk across the room by applying a 195 N force at an upward 40° angle (measured from horizontal). The coefficient of friction (\( \mu \)) is 0.46.
#### Tasks
1. **Find \( F_g \) (Gravitational Force):**
\(\_\_\_\_\) N
2. **Find \( F_N \) (Normal Force):**
\(\_\_\_\_\) N
3. **Find \( F_f \) (Frictional Force):**
\(\_\_\_\_\) N
4. **Find the acceleration of the desk:**
\(\_\_\_\_\) m/s\(^2\)
#### Diagram Explanation
- The diagram shows a block labeled "m" on a surface with a force \( F \) applied at a 40° angle from the horizontal. The angle is represented by the Greek letter \( \theta \).
### Additional Information
- **Submit Question** button is available for learners to input their answers.
- The interface shows "Question 6" with a feedback panel for attempts and scores.
---
Engage with the problem by calculating each of the forces and the resulting acceleration to understand the effects of forces applied at angles in physics.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F18608e9e-bffe-4b38-84b4-3b337a037743%2Faebd19b6-d08a-4f7b-ae98-dc7d3fe82d79%2Fs6nxshg_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
