A 2.5 kg block slides down a rough slope at constant speed. The forces on it are weight , normal contact force and friction . Which statement about these forces is correct?
- The three forces add vectorially to give zero resultant.
- The magnitudes of , and must all be equal.
- and cancel, so must be zero.
- Only the components of and along the slope must be equal; is irrelevant.
