Question

***THERE IS NO DIAGRAM NEEDED**

please clearly state what i is and what j is for each one. 

 

Block 1 (20 kg) is pulled by a rope from left to right up a ramp which is inclined 50 degrees from the horizontal. The rope pulls on block 1 with a force of 300 N parallel to the surface of the inclined plane. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface equals 0.3.
On a sheet of paper, draw the free body diagram for block 1 using the two-subscript notation from class. Assume that the x-axis is parallel to the incline and positive in the direction up the incline. After completing the free body diagram, enter below each force and its x & y-components.

FORCES on BLOCK 1
Weight force on block 1 by Earth
W1E =  i +  j N

Tension force on block 1 by Rope
T1R =  i +  j N

Normal force on block 1 by Surface
N1S =  i +  j N

Frictional force on block 1 by Surface
f1S =  i +  j N

 

What is the acceleration a of block 1?
a =  i +  j m/s2
