1) weight of the box: 980 N

The weight of the box is given by:

W=mg

where m=100.0 kg is the mass of the box, and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity. Substituting in the formula, we find

W=(100.0 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=980 N


2) Normal force: 630 N

The magnitude of the normal force is equal to the component of the weight which is perpendicular to the ramp, which is given by

N=W cos \theta

where W is the weight of the box, calculated in the previous step, and \theta=50^{\circ} is the angle of the ramp. Substituting, we find

N=(980 N)(cos 50^{\circ})=630 N


3) Acceleration: 7.5 m/s^2

The acceleration of the box along the ramp is equal to the component of the acceleration of gravity parallel to the ramp, which is given by

a_p = g sin \theta

Substituting, we find

W_p = (9.8 m/s^2)(sin 50^{\circ})=7.5 m/s^2

An object must move in the (same or different) direction as the force is being applied.
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

only reason an object will move in a different direction to the net force on it is because of its prior momentum and it will always accelerate in the direction of the force if thats what u mean.. lol
