Answer:1.04 N
Explanation:
Given
Gravitational Force on the Platter is 
Tray makes an angle of 
This gravitational Force has components along and Perpendicular to Platter
Perpendicular Force 

Along the Tray


Thus 1.04 N is the magnitude of force that will cause Platter to slide down
Answer:
a. closer to 20∘C
Explanation:
= mass of pallet = 50 g = 0.050 kg
= specific heat of pallet = specific heat of iron
= Initial temperature of pellet = 200 C
= mass of water = 50 g = 0.050 kg
= specific heat of water
= Initial temperature of water = 20 C
= Final equilibrium temperature
Also given that
Using conservation of energy
Energy gained by water = Energy lost by pellet

hence the correct choice is
a. closer to 20∘C
