A block with mass m = 4 kg is sinking with constant acceleration aT = 1.9 m/s2 into the ground. The acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.81 m/s2. Please answer the following questions.
Part (a) Write an expression for the magnitude of the force of gravity on the block, Fg, in terms of the given quantities and variables available in the palette.
Part (b) Calculate the magnitude of the force of gravity on the block, Fg in Newtons.
Part (c) In what direction does the force of gravity act? No Attempt No Attempt
Part (d) Write an expression for the magnitude of the total force of the system in the y-direction, FT, in terms of the forces of the system.
Part (e) Write an expression for the magnitude of the normal force FN, in terms of m, aT, and g.
Part (f) What is the magnitude of the normal force in N?
Part (g) In what direction is the normal force?
