e magnitude of the normal force of the floor on the crate isA. 25N
B. 68N
C. 180N
D. 250N
E. 310N
B. 68N
C. 180N
D. 250N
E. 310N
1 answer:
Answer:
Option E is correct 310N
Explanation:
Given that the force used to push the crate is F = 200N
The force directed 20° below the horizontal
Mass of crate is m = 25kg
Weight of the crate can be determine using
W = mg
g is gravitational constant =9.8m/s²
W = 25×9.8
W = 245 N

Using newton second law along the vertical axis since we want to find the normal force
ΣFy = m•ay
ay = 0, since the body is not moving in the vertical or y direction
N—W—F•Sin20 = 0
N = W+F•Sin20
N = 245+ 200Sin20
N = 245 + 68.4
N = 313.4 N
The normal force is approximately 310 N to the nearest ten

Answer:
Both will reach to same height
Explanation:
Here we can see that friction is to be ignored
so we can say that work done by all the non conservative forces is change in mechanical energy
Since all non conservative forces here is zero
so mechanical energy is conserved here
so here we can say that sum of initial kinetic energy and potential energy = sum of final kinetic energy and potential energy
So we will have
now maximum height is given as
so here we can say that greatest height will be independent of the mass so they both will reach at same height
