A 50kg box sits motionless on a ramp, as shown below. Draw the force diagram for the box. What is the magnitude of the normal component of the force of the ramp on the box? 20°

A 50kg box slides at 4 m/s down a ramp, as shown below. Draw the force diagram for the box. What is the magnitude of the normal component of the force of the ramp on the box? 20° v

For an object resting upon a non-accelerating surface, the normal force is equal to the weight of the object.

According to Newton's third law, every force is accompanied by an equal and opposite reaction force. The reason that these forces do not cancel each other is ____. a. the action force acts for a longer time period b. the two forces are not always in the same direction c. one of the two forces is greater than the other d. the two forces act upon different objects; only forces on the same object can balance each other. e.... nonsense! They do cancel each other. Objects accelerate because of the presence of a third force.

As you sit in your chair and study your physics (presuming that you do), the force of gravity acts downward upon your body.

Gravity is a field force and there is no such reaction force.
