When dealing with multiple forces acting on a body, it is advisable to draw a free-body diagram like that shown in the picture. There are four forces acting on the box: weight (W) pointing straight down, normal force perpendicular to the slope denoted as Fn, force used to push the box upwards along the slope and the frictional force acting opposite to the direction of motion of the box denoted as Ff. Frictional force is equal to coefficient of kinetic friction (μk) multiplied with Fn.
∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N
When in motion, the net force is equal to mass times acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:
Fnet = F - μk*Fn - mgsin30° = ma
250 - (0.2)(471.5 N) - (50)(sin 16°) = (50)(a)
a = 2.84 m/s²
∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N

Answer:
19.01 N
Explanation:
F = Force being applied to the crate = 45 N
= Angle at which the force is being applied =
Horizontal component of force is given by
The horizontal component of the force acting on the crate is 19.01 N.
