A frictionless incline (the triangle below) is bolted to the floor so that it can not move. A block of mass m slides down the slope, which makes an angle
with the horizontal.a)Draw a free-body diagram for the block, labeling all forces uniquely.
b)Describe all the forces listed above in the following format:F1 acts on ________________ and is caused by _________________ .c)What is the magnitude of the normal force acting on the block?d)What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the block down the slope?Here is my problem the first part I'm sure I'm right since it was just a free body diagram.
The only information given was a right triangle and a block inclined on it. The problem is nothing else was given except for a theta | \
----- theta is at bottom right corner.
That is all that was given I don't see how in the world I can solve these with such little information unless they're just asking for the formula please help asap!
Thank you!
