To find the second N, I have done this, but I do not feel as confident: X-Analysis: Fx - f = 0 Fsin30 - f = 0 Fsin30 = f F = (f)/(sin30) [equation to plug in for F] Y-Analysis: N - W - Fy = 0 N - W - Fcos30 = 0 N - W - ((f)/sin30)•cos30 N - W - ((f)/tan30) N - ((uN)/tan30) = W N - ... at this...

OK, after coming back to the problem, I think I have figured it out: So, X-analysis; Fx - f = 0 Fcos30 - f = 0 Fcos30 = f F = (u•N)/(cos30) [this is the equation for force that we can plug in] Y-analysis; N - W + Fsin30 = 0 N - W + ((u•N)/cos30)•sin30 = 0 N - W + (u•N)•tan30 = 0 N +...
