1. A 20.0 N force directed 20.0° above the horizontal is applied to a 6.00 kg crate that is traveling on a horizontal
surface. What is the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the surface on the crate?

Respuesta :

Trancescient

N = 52.0 N

Explanation:

Given: [tex]F_a= 20.0\:\text{N}=\:\text{applied\:force}[/tex]

[tex]m=6.00\:\text{kg}[/tex]

[tex]N = \text{normal force}[/tex]

The net force [tex]F_{net}[/tex] is given by

[tex]F_{net} = N + F_a\sin 20 - mg=0[/tex]

Solving for N, we get

[tex]N = mg - F_a\sin 20[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:= (6.00\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2) - (20.0\:\text{N}\sin 20)[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:= 52.0\:\text{N}[/tex]
