∙ 11y agoFirst . . . look at the drawing, and keep looking until you understand how
the normal force is related to the tension.
Here's a hint that may or may not help: Remember that if nothing is moving,
then the sum of all the forces at any point is zero. And whatever you do,
don't forget about gravity, and its effect on the mass..

∙ 11y agoI could be totally wrong but I believe you must take into account the forces on the object in the vertical direction. In this case, the object is being pulled by a rope with a tension of 120 N. The vertical force would therefore be 120 sin(30) Normally W = [F normal] with no vertical force. However, since there is a vertical force: W = [F normal] + [120 sin (30)] (25 kg X 9.8 m/s2) = [F normal] + [120 sin (30)] 245 N - 60 N = [F normal] 185 N = [F normal] I apologize if this is incorrect as I haven't been in a physics class in over 4 years. Good luck!
You cannot. Force is mass times acceleration. You have neither.
You cannot. You do not have the necessary information.
Force equals mass times acceleration.
You cannot. Force = Mass*Acceleration or Mass*Rate of change of Velocity.
To find the normal force on an object on an incline, you can use the component of the object's weight perpendicular to the incline. The force of friction can be calculated using the coefficient of friction between the object and the incline, along with the normal force.
The work done by the tension force is calculated as the product of the force exerted by the tension and the distance over which it acts. The force exerted by the tension is given by the mass times the acceleration plus the force due to gravity. Work = force * distance = (mass * acceleration + mass * gravity) * distance. Plug in the values to find the work done by the tension force.

The formula to find the normal force on an object on a flat surface is: Normal force = Weight of the object * cos(theta), where theta is the angle between the object's weight and the surface. This formula takes into account the component of the weight that acts perpendicular to the surface.
P = F/A, so Area = Force/Pressure
You cannot. Force is mass times acceleration. You have neither.
You can find the output force by dividing the work done by the input force by the efficiency. This formula is: Output Force = Work / (Input Force * Efficiency).
You cannot. You do not have the necessary information.
Force equals mass times acceleration.
You cannot. Force = Mass*Acceleration or Mass*Rate of change of Velocity.
To find the normal reaction force acting on an object at an angle, you can resolve the forces into horizontal and vertical components. The normal reaction force will be the vertical component of the force acting perpendicular to the surface. You can use trigonometry to calculate this component by using the angle at which the object is situated.
