The free body diagram consists of:

1) Weight force, which is a vertical arrow downward

2) A Normal force that is perpendicular to the ramp.

The Normal force can be decomposed in a vertical component and an horizontal component.

The vertical component, Ny,  must equal the weight force, due to equilibrium (rest) condiition =>

Ny = weight = m*g = 5.5kg*9.8m/s^2 = 53.9 N

By geometry the vertical component of the Normal force, Ny is such that

cos (angle) = N / Ny => N = Ny * cos(angle)

=> N = 53.9N * cos(angle)

Now use that equation for each option:

a) 0 ° => N = 53.9N * cos(0) = 53.9N

b) 12° => N = 53.9 * cos(12) = 52.7N

c) 25° => N = 53.9 * cos(25) = 48.9N

d) 45° => N = 53.9 * cos(45) = 38.1N

América se encuentra más lejos del polo norte que del polo sur. Lejos del polo norte que del polo sur. VERDADERO O FALSO
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Falso.

Explicación:

América está más lejos del Polo Sur que del Polo Norte porque América está ubicada en el hemisferio norte, que está más cerca del polo norte. América está presente en el lado norte del ecuador, mientras que el polo sur está ubicado en el sur del ecuador, lo que indica que América está más cerca del polo norte, mientras que más lejos del polo sur, por lo que la afirmación de la pregunta es falsa.
