A horizontal force, F1 = 65 N, and a force, F2 = 13.3 N acting at an angle of θ to the horizontal, are applied to a block of mass m = 3.1 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is μk = 0.2. The block is moving to the right. Solve numerically for the magnitude of the normal force, FN in Newtons, that acts on the block if θ = 30°. Solve numerically for the magnitude of acceleration of the block, a in m/s2, if θ = 30°.
