Homework Equations
F=ma
The Attempt at a Solution
Is it correct that the weight times sin45 will equal ma, because that's how i first did it but now I am going through the problem again before handing it in and drew the sketch again and I was thinking what about the weight times cos45? wouldn't that AND wsin45 cause acceleration?
