When a 25-kg crate is pushed across a frictionless horizontal floor with a force of 200 N, directed 20 below the horizontal, the magnitude of the normal force of the floor on the crate isA. 25N
B. 68N
C. 180N
D. 250N
E. 310N

The magnitude of the normal force of the floor on the crate is 180 N.

The given parameters;

The magnitude of the normal force of the floor on the crate is calculated as follows;

Thus, the magnitude of the normal force of the floor on the crate is 180 N.

Option E is correct 310N

Explanation:

Given that the force used to push the crate is F = 200N

The force directed 20° below the horizontal

Mass of crate is m = 25kg

Weight of the crate can be determine using

W = mg

g is gravitational constant =9.8m/s²

W = 25×9.8

W = 245 N

Check attachment. For free body diagram and better understanding

Using newton second law along the vertical axis since we want to find the normal force

ΣFy = m•ay

ay = 0, since the body is not moving in the vertical or y direction

N—W—F•Sin20 = 0

N = W+F•Sin20

N = 245+ 200Sin20

N = 245 + 68.4

N = 313.4 N

The normal force is approximately 310 N to the nearest ten

i need the answer to this too but idk it ; -;
