Physics Problems: Normal Forces and Frictional Forces, Exams of Physics

Several physics problems related to normal forces and frictional forces. The problems involve calculating the normal force of a ramp on a block, the normal force of a platform on a cow, and the frictional force of a platform on a cow. Additionally, there are questions about the forces that cause a skateboard to accelerate and the direction of frictional forces on tires. Diagrams are provided to help solve the problems.
