However instead of crests and troughs, longitudinal waves have compressions and rarefactions. Compression. A compression is a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together. Rarefaction. A rarefaction is a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart.

salantis [7]

Answer:

141.56 N.

Explanation:

Data given:

Weight of the box= 200.2 N

Angle with the horizontal= 37.1°

Solution;

Gravitational force on the box, $F_g$ = weight of the box

= 200.2 N

Component of gravitational force along plane = $F_g * sin$ ( ∅ )

= W * (sin∅)

= (200.1) * sin (37.1°)

= 141.56 N
