Unfortunately, no. I'm guessing the answer would either be "increases" or "decreases"

anonymous · Answer

I think "increases".

lilg132 · Answer

it is always the opposite to the exerted force e.g. the force is 100N the normal force would be -100N ?

agentjamesbond007 · Answer

Right, but as the angle of incline increases, the slope is more towards a vertical line and since the normal force is opposite to the box touching the surface, wouldn't it decrease? Or will it always be the same?
