Two boxes, A and B, are at rest. Box A is on level ground, while box B rests on an inclined plane tilted at angle θ with the horizontal. (a) Write expressions for the normal force acting on each block. (b) Compare the two forces; that is, tell which one is larger or whether they are equal in magnitude. (c) If the angle of incline is 10° , which force is greater?
A block is lifted by a plane inclined 20 ° with respect to the horizontal by means of a
force F that makes an angle of 30 ° with the plane. What are the magnitude of F and the value
of Fy ’if the component Fx’ parallel to the inclined plane is 8 N?
a) 9.23 N and 4.61 N, respectively
