Answer:
Option E is correct 310N
Explanation:
Given that the force used to push the crate is F = 200N
The force directed 20° below the horizontal
Mass of crate is m = 25kg
Weight of the crate can be determine using
W = mg
g is gravitational constant =9.8m/s²
W = 25×9.8
W = 245 N
Check attachment. For free body diagram and better understanding
Using newton second law along the vertical axis since we want to find the normal force
ΣFy = m•ay
ay = 0, since the body is not moving in the vertical or y direction
N—W—F•Sin20 = 0
N = W+F•Sin20
N = 245+ 200Sin20
N = 245 + 68.4
N = 313.4 N
The normal force is approximately 310 N to the nearest ten
