The Attempt at a Solution
The arrows on the diagram are drawn in, as are the labels (except for the angles).
[tex]\sum F_{x} = P_{x} - Tcos30 = 0[/tex]
[tex]T = \frac{P_{x}}{cos30}[/tex]
[tex]\sum F_{y} = N_{p} - 8900N - 650g - Tsin30 = 0[/tex]
[tex]N_{p} = 15274N + Tsin30[/tex]
[tex]N_{p} = 15274N + P_{x}tan30[/tex]
I think I'm missing forces, and probably making up a few. If anyone could check them over before I continue I'd really appreciate it.
