A frictionless slope is fixed to the ground. There is a ball that is completely stationary. Two springs P and Q are attached to the ball. P is straight down while Q is along the incline. P is compressed while Q is stretched. The magnitude of spring force of P is smaller than Q by 2N. The mass of the ball is 2kg. Ignore the masses of the springs. The angle of the slope is 30 degree. Find the normal force and the spring forces. 10. а.
