Question

Box A, weighting 60 N, is placed on a table tilted at angle of 15˚. Another box, B, weighing 40N, is placed on top of A. Both boxes are at rest.

A) Draw the free-body diagram for box B. What is the frictional force exerted on A by B?

B) Draw the free-body diagram for box A. What is the frictional force exerted on A by the table?

The image depicts a simple diagram of a lever system. On the left is a rectangular block acting as the fulcrum. The lever is at an angle, with the left end of the bar resting on the fulcrum and the right end pressing down towards a box-like object. Above the lever, the number "300" is written, which could represent a force measurement or weight in a hypothetical scenario. This setup is often used to illustrate basic principles of physics, such as the mechanics of levers and forces in equilibrium.
