Although a zig zag pattern going up a mountain means you walk further, the incline of the slope is a lot less so you don't have to work as hard.
Answer: Newton, the unit of force, is defined based on Newton's Second Law (F=ma), as the force required to give a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of 1 meter/second2. Thus, it is derived from these other units.
Explanation:
The wavelength of a wave (λ) is given by λ

where c is the wave speed and f is the frequency
Answer:
a) a = 4.9 m / s², N = 16.97 N and b) F = 9.8 N
Explanation:
a) For this exercise we will use Newton's second law, we write a reference system with the x axis parallel to the plane, see attached, in this system the only force we have to break down is weight, let's use trigonometry
sin 30 = Wx / W
cos 30 = Wy / W
Wx = W sin30
Wy = W cos 30
Let's write the equations on each axis
X axis
Wx = ma
Y Axis
N- Wy = 0
N = Wy = mg cos 30
N = 2.0 9.8 cos 30
N = 16.97 N
We calculate the acceleration
a = Wx / m
a = mg sin 30 / m
a = g sin 30
a =9.8 sin 30
a = 4.9 m / s²
b) For the block to move with constant speed, the acceleration must be zero, so the force applied must be equal to the weight component
F -Wx = 0
F = Wx
F = m g sin 30
F = 2.0 9.8 sin 30
F = 9.8 N
