Homework Statement
A wedge with an inclination of angle theta rests next to a wall. A block of mass m is sliding down the plane, as shown. There is no friction between the wedge and the block or between the wedge and the horizontal surface. (Intro 1 figure) what is the magnitude of the force of the wall exerts on the wedge?
Homework Equations
I know that the sum of all forces is mg sin theta. and i know that the normal force between the block and wedge is mgcos theta. Please does anyone know the answer
