Question

A body of mass 5 kg is placed on a frictionless inclined plane of angle 30°. What is the component of the weight of the body along the plane?

• A. 25 N
• B. 50 N
• C. 45 N
• D. 75 N

Hint:

Remember: The component of the weight along an inclined plane is found using \( W_{\parallel} = W \sin(\theta) \), where \( \theta \) is the angle of the incline.
