A 15-kg block is on a ramp which is inclined at 20° above the horizontal. It is connected by a string to a 19-kg mass which hangs over the top edge of the ramp. Assuming that frictional forces may be neglected, what is the downward acceleration of the 19-kg block? 4.0 m/s2, 4.5m/s2, 4.2 m/s2, 3.8m/s2

1. explain how you calculate the net force in any direction on the box. 2. suppose an upward force of 15n is added to the box. what will be the net vertical force on the box? 3. what force could be applied to the box to make the net force in the horizontal direction zero? explain. 4. suppose a force of 25n to the right is added to the box. what will be the net force to the right?
