Answer:
∑Fy = 0, because there is no movement, N = m*g*cos (omega)
Explanation:
We can solve this problem with the help of a free body diagram where we show the respective forces in each one of the axes, y & x. The free-body diagram and the equations are in the image attached.
If the product of mass by acceleration is zero, we must clear the normal force of the equation obtained. The acceleration is equal to zero because there is no movement on the Y-axis.
In kynematics you describe the motion of particles using vectors and their change in time. You define a position vector r for a particle, and then define velocity v and acceleration a as
In dynamics Newton's laws predict the acceleration for a given force. Knowing the acceleration, and the kynematical relations defines above, you can solve for the position as a function of time: r(t)
