Pressure is the force per unit area. This means that the pressure a solid object exerts on another solid surface is its weight in newton’s divided by its area in square metres
<span> the </span>spring constant<span> k is the slope of the straight line W versus x plot.</span>
<span>the body is moving horizontally, it doesnt matter watever kind of horizontal forces are acting.
Therefore the normal force is equal to the weight
N=mg=4.2*9.8=41N
Note: the other data in the problem have no relevance
answer
</span> the normal force on the sled is 41N
