Chapter 16.1, Problem 5cTH

A block is at rest on an incline as shown below at right. A hand pushes vertically downward with a constant force. The block remains at rest on the incline.

Chapter 16.1, Problem 5cTH, A block is at rest on an incline as shown below at right. A hand pushes vertically downward with a , example  1

c. Suppose that the hand were to push with a constant force directed as shown at right. The block remains at rest on the incline.

Two dogs, Ajax and Bandit, are pulling a Radio Flyer wagon carrying their best cat friend, Casper. the overhead view of the dog force vectors is shown to scale in the grid at the right. (Assume 4 significant figures.) a. Find the single force that is equivalent to the two forces shown. b. If that old rusty wagon DOES NOT MOVE, find the force (including direction) that the ground exerts on the wagon to keep it in place, in spite of the dogs. The forces are measured in units of newtons (N). (You may use EITHER geometry OR vector addition with Cartesian or polarcoordinates. Either way, a diagram to scale is required. Be sure to JUSTIFY whyyour answer to part b is the opposite of your answer to part a.)
