Question 57

A block of mass 3 kg is held at rest against a rough vertical wall by a horizontal force of magnitude 50 N directed towards the wall. The wall is to the left of the block.

Use g=9.8g=9.8g=9.8 m s−2^{-2}−2.

a.

Find the magnitudes and directions of the normal reaction and frictional force exerted by the wall on the block.
