A block of mass 5 kg is being pushed over level ground by rod at 60 degrees to horizontal with force 40 N with acc. 1.5 what is the frictional force of the surface and draw a diagram with the forces acting on the block

Block has normal force, weight, friction and the force from the rod acting on itResultant force = 5*1.5=7.5horizontal component of force from rod = 207.5= 20 - FF= 12.5

Solve algebraically the simultaneous equations: 6x=5-2y 12.5=3x+3y

Rearrange both equations into the form ax + by = c. 3x+3y = 12.5 6x +2y = 5. 2) Make either x or y have the same coefficient in each equation. In this case we use x, to do this we multiply the first...
