Welcome to PF.

Generally the normal force is going to be m*g.

The Tension is apparently upwards which means that the upward component the tension T*Sinθ is pulling up and reducing the m*g

Whatever your normal force times the coefficient of friction is it will retard the forward pull of the Tension, which is the horizontal component of T.
