Question 1149457: A particle at weight 200N rests on a plane inclined at 50 degrees to the horizontal. What are the components of the weight :
A) parallel
B) perpendicular to the plane? Answer by ikleyn(52781) (Show Source):
The component of the weight normal to the inclined plane is = (normal force).
The component of the weight parallel to the inclined plane is = (shear force).
