I can see now that you can substitute (Ty + Ff) - Fg for ((Ty + (µ x Tx))-Fg. So that would mean (T(0.990) + µT(0.139)) - 650 N = 0 N But how do I carry on from there?
Tx = T sin 8 or T(0.139) = Fn
Ty = T cos 8 or T(0.990)
The only equation to calculate force of friction that I know is Ff = µ x Fn
It may be the substitutions you mentioned that I am not understanding. Could you please elaborate?
