A wagon weighing 225 N represented by force G is parked on a
A wagon weighing 225 N, represented by force G, is parked on a driveway that is inclined 18degree to the horizontal, as shown. The figure is not drawn to scale. Complete the following. Do not round any intermediate computations, and round your answers to the nearest hundredth. Find the magnitude of the force Q required to prevent the wagon from rolling down the driveway. Find the magnitude of the force C of the wagon against the driveway.
Solution
solution-
Dividing the G into component normal to the plane and perpendicular to the plane
and angle between G and C is 18o
P=225sin18
to aviod rolling then P=Q
Q=225sin18
Q=69.52
b)
C=225cos18
C=213.98
