<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.5 m/s²

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Force as 60 N

Mass of the Cart as 40 kg

We are required to calculate the acceleration of the cart.

From the newton's second law of motion, the rate of change in momentum is directly proportional to the resultant force.
That is, F = ma , where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Rearranging the formula we can calculate acceleration, a

a = F ÷ m

= 60 N ÷ 40 kg

= 1.5 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the cart is 1.5 m/s²

A 5.00 kg crate is on a 21.0 degree hill. Using X-Y axes tilted down the plane, what is the y-component of the normal force?

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The y-component of the normal force is 45.74 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the crate, m = 5 kg

Angle with hill, $\theta=21^{\circ}$

We need to find the y component of the normal force. We know that the y component of the normal force is given by :

$F_y=F\ \cos\theta\\\\F_y=mg\ \cos\theta\\\\F_y=5\times 9.8\ \cos(21)\\\\F_y=45.74\ N$

So, the y-component of the normal force is 45.74 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
