What is the normal force on an object weighing 437N at rest on an inclined plane with an angle of 29 degrees?

Sagot :

Answer:408

Explanation:

Answer:

  382.2 N

Explanation:

You want the normal force on an object weighing 437 N situated on an inclined plane 29° from the horizontal.

Force vector

The vector 437 N straight down can be decomposed to vectors parallel to the plane and perpendicular to the plane. That decomposition looks like ...

  (perpendicular, parallel) = 437 N · (cos(29°), sin(29°)) ≈ (382.2, 211.9) N

The normal force on the object is about 382.2 N.
