You want to draw a free body diagram of the forces on the sled in the horizontal x-direction.
If you visualize the system in an x-y coordinate plane, the force along the x-direction is the angle it makes with the x-axis multiples by the force.
The angle made with the x-axis is cosine of the angle theta.
Please see picture attached.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Maybe your question is meant to be: which is not a wedge, because wedge is a combination of two inclined planes, use to separate bodies which are held together by large forces. Option A,B & C are all wedge except D.
Given:
Force(F): 100 N
Acceleration: 10 m/s^2
Now we know that
F= mx a
Where F is the force acting on the object which is measured in Newton
m is the mass of the object measured in Kg
a is the acceleration measured in m/s^2
Substituting the given values in the above formula we get
100= 10m
m= 10 Kg
Answer:
this may be wrong but I am not sure
