A block with a mass of m = 22 kg rests on a frictionless surface and is subject to two forces acting on it. The first force is directed in the negative x-direction with a magnitude of F1. The second has a magnitude of F2 and acts on the body at an angle θ = 15° measured from horizontal, as shown. 1). Please draw the Free Body Diagram for this block, assuming it is in static equilibrium? 2)Write an expression for the component of net force, Fnet,x, in the x-direction, in terms of the variables given in the problem statement. 3)Write an expression for the magnitude of the normal force, FN, acting on the block, in terms of F2 and the other variables of the problem.

Three blocks, light connecting ropes, and a light frictionless pulley comprise a system, as shown in the figure.

Three forces of magnitudes F1=4.0N, F2=6.0N, and F3=8.0N are applied to a block of mass m=2.0kg, initially at rest, at angles shown on the diagram. (Figure 1)In this problem, you will determine the resultant (net) force by combining the three individual force vectors. All angles should be measured counterclockwise from the positive x axis (i.e., all angles are positive). A.) What is the magnitude of the block's acceleration vector, a⃗ ? B.) What is the direction of a⃗ ? In other words, what angle does this vector make with respect to the positive x axis? C.) How far (in meters) will the block move in 5.0 s? Recall that it starts from rest.
