    1.7 x 10^2 N

    or 166 N

    First you find the vertical component of the weight, which is 9.8*40, (g*m), which is 392 N. You then find the angle between that and the slope, which is 90-25, which is 65. You then multiply the vertical weight by cos (65), to find the component of that that is parallel to the slope. You get 165.666 N
