4. The diagram below shows a worker using a rope to pull a cart. The worker's pull on the handle of the cart is at an angle of 50°. The cart is loaded with soil and has a mass of 155 kg. If he pulls the cart against a resistive (drag) force of 50 N, what force does the worker apply to cause a constant velocity? [A: F = 77.8 N] F 5. A block of mass 18 kg is pushed against a rough fixed wall by a force F of 40 N. Determine: The frictional force between the block and the surface. [A: F= 180 N] The normal force acting on the block from the wall. [A: FN = 40 N] 6. A uniform building brick is pulled along rough ground by a force scale as shown in the diagram. [The mass of the brick is 2.5 kg] A. When the brick is pulled at constant speed the reading on the force scale is 8.2 N. Determine the force of friction between the brick and the ground. [A: Fp = 7.7 N] B. (i) Calculate the vertical component of the 8.2 N force. [A: Fx = 2.8 N] (ii) Determine the force that the ground [Normal Force] exerts on the brick and state the direction of this force. [A: F = 22.2 N upward (FN)]
