Answer:
F = 3.01 N
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of a block, m = 2.75 kg
Force applied to the block, F = 5.11 N
It is directed 53.8° above horizontal.
We need to find the total force acting on the block. The force acting on it is given by :
[tex]F=F\cos\theta\\\\F=5.11\times \cos53.8\\F=3.01\ N[/tex]
So, 3.01 N of force is acting on the block.
