We need to apply a force of magnitude 32.13 N

Explanation:

The forces acting on this crate are:

1) the crate's weight (which we can decompose in two components: one parallel to the incline, and the other one perpendicular to it) The parallel component of the weight is the product of the mass, times g (9.8 m/s^2) times sin(35). This component is pointing down the incline, and let's call it the "x" component. Its magnitude is given by:

$w_x=m\,\,g\,\,sin(35^o)$

The magnitude of the perpendicular component of the weight (let's call it the y-component) is given by the expression:

$w_y=m\,\,g\,\,cos(35^o)$

2) The force of friction between the crate and the surface of the incline (acting parallel to the incline and opposite the direction of the parallel component of the weight ( w_x )

3) The extra force we need to apply perpendicular to the incline and towards it (lets call it "E") so the crate doesn't slide down.

4) The normal force that the incline applies on the crate as reaction. This force is pointing away from the incline.

For the block not to move (slide down the incline), we need that the parallel component of the weight equals the force of friction with the surface of the incline. Let's call this force of friction f_s , and recall that it is defined as the product of the normal force times the coefficient of friction (given as 0.3 in value). This in equation form becomes:

$f_s=m\,g\,sin(35^o)\\\mu\,\,n=m\,g\,sin(35^o)\\n=\frac{m\,g\,sin(35^o)}{\mu} \\n=\frac{3\,*\,9.8\,\,sin(35^o)}{\0.3}\\n=56.21 \,\,N$

We solved for the needed magnitude of the normal force in order to keep the crate from sliding.

Now we study the forces vertical to the incline, which should also be balanced since the crate is not moving in this direction. We add all the forces acting towards the incline (the perpendicular component of the crate's weight, and the extra force "E"), and make them equal to the only force coming outwards (the normal force):

$n=E+m\,\,g\,\,cos(35^o)$
