A wagon filled with groceries weighing 36 pounds begins to roll down a hill having an incline of 300. What force is required to keep the wagon from sliding down the hill?

OpenStudy (sooobored):

draw a pictureeeee

OpenStudy (redheadangel):

of a wagon?

And a free body diagram!

OpenStudy (redheadangel):

alright, that makes sense

OpenStudy (sooobored):

we apply a force on teh wagon parallel to the surface so that teh wagon doesnt move |dw:1478899155767:dw|

OpenStudy (sooobored):

so, an incline of 300, i have no idea waht that means

OpenStudy (redheadangel):

okay, how do we find the force

OpenStudy (steve816):

No friction right?

OpenStudy (sooobored):

i assume wheels so "frictionless"
