i don't understand, you don't need Fn. Because the Fnet equation equals Ff + Fa + Fg(parallel) , you don't need Fn or Fg becuase its in the y-axis, and acceleration is in the x-axis

it represents the Fg(parallel) I remember when my teacher was going over this question he put a number then sin25, i just can't remember the number. Never mind, this question is hopeless

the calcualtions only take one step. -250+1200sin25+1200N divided by 188.58 Kg to get acceleration, but I got it wrong on the test

I did draw the free body diagram Fg is straight down Fg perpendicualr is straight down from the surface and Fn is straight up from the surface, and Fg having a horizontal component called Fg (parallel) and Ff going left from the bike on the inclined plane and the applied force is opposite...

Homework Statement He gives the bike a little throttle providing an applied force of 1.20 kN to propel him up the 25 degree incline. THe combined weight of Chad and the dirt bike is 1.85 kN. If the force of friction is 250 N, determine the acceleration? [b]2. Homework Equations [/b I...
