Answer:

323.4N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the box = 33kg

Unknown:

Normal force on the body = ?

Solution:

The normal force of a body is the vertical force the body exerts on another body.

It is expressed as;

Normal force = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Normal force = 33 x 9.8 = 323.4N
