I think one hour, sorry if i'm wrong
Answer:
Magnitude of static friction force is 70 sin40° = 44.99 N.
No, it is not necessary that it is maximum static friction.
Normal force is equal to 70 cos40° = 53.62 N.
Explanation:
We apply newton law of moton equation along the plane and perpendicular to plane;
Along the plane,
70 sin 40° = ---------------(1)
70 cos 40° = N --------------(2)
= μN -----------------(3)
So, it depends on the value of μ that the friction is maximum or not .
Answer: N = Mgcos(theta)
Therefore, the Normal reaction force is equal to Mgcos(theta)
Explanation:
See attached for a sketch.
From the attachment.
.
N = normal reaction force on block
W = weight of the block
theta = angle of the inclined plane to the horizontal
From the sketch, we can see that
N is equal in magnitude but opposite direction to Wy
N = Wy
And
Wy = Wcos(theta)
Wx = Wsin(theta)
Then,
N = Wy = Wcos(theta)
But W = mass × acceleration due to gravity = mg
N = Mgcos(theta)
Therefore, the Normal reaction force is equal to Mgcos(theta)
