Draw a diagram of the situation and label the givens in the problem: The cart's mass and the hanger's mass. Also label the direction of the cart and hanger's acceleration.
Draw two force diagrams. One for the cart and one for the hanger. You can treat the track as frictionless. Remember that the force in the string will be the same throughout the entire string.
Then define an x-y coordinate system and find the x and y components of the forces in your diagrams.
A block with a mass of m = 48 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 = 10.5 N. The second has a magnitude of F2 = 21.5 N and acts on the body at an angle θ = 12° measured from horizontal, as shown.
1).Please draw the correct free body diagram
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, g, and the other variables of the problem. Assume that the surface it rests on is rigid.

notation with their magnitude (in variables) on the
diagram below.
b) Note that F, = 0, because the block can only move
