Your diagram should include four forces:
• the box's weight, pointing down (magnitude <em>w</em> = 43.2 N)
• the normal force, pointing up (mag. <em>n</em>)
• the applied force, pointing the direction in which the box is sliding (mag. <em>p</em> = 6.30 N, with <em>p</em> for "pull")
• the frictional force, pointing oppoiste the applied force (mag. <em>f</em> )
The box is moving at a constant speed, so it is inequilibrium and the net forces in both the vertical and horizontal directions sum to 0. By Newton's second law, we have
<em>n</em> + (-<em>w</em>) = 0
and
<em>p</em> + (-<em>f</em> ) = 0
So then the forces have magnitudes
<em>w</em> = 43.2 N
<em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = 43.2 N
<em>p</em> = 6.30 N
<em>f</em> = <em>p</em> = 6.30 N
The unit of pressure is the Pascal (Pa), equivalent to

A radio telescope is simply a telescope that is designed to receive radio waves from space. In its simplest form it has three components:
1. One or more antennas to collect the incoming radio waves. Most antennas are parabolic dishes that reflect the radio waves to a receiver, in the same way as a curved mirror can focus visible light to a point.
2. A receiver and amplifier to boost the very weak radio signal to a measurable level. These days the amplifiers are extremely sensitive and are normally cooled to very low temperatures to minimise interference due to the noise generated by the movement of the atoms in the metal (called thermal noise).
3. A recorder to keep a record of the signal. Most radio telescopes nowadays record directly to some form of computer memory disk as astronomers use sophisticated software to process and analyse the data.
