Three forces are acting on an object located on an inclined
Three forces are acting on an object located on an inclined plane.The incline is tilted at an angle θ=34°.One can show that the angle shown in the diagram is this same θ.Assume the +x direction is up and to the right.Assume the +y direction is up on to the left.
What is the component of the net force in the direction parallel to the incline (the x-axis)?
What is the component of the net force in the direction perpendicular to the incline (the y-axis)?
The three forces are:F1 = 61.35 N; F2 = 74.0 N; and F3 = 8.0 N.
