A car slides up a frictionless inclined plane. How does the normal force of the incline on the car compare with the weight of the car?
The normal force must be equal to the car's weight.
The normal force must be less than the car's weight.
The normal force must be greater than the car's weight.
The normal force must be zero.
The normal force could have any value relative to the car's weight.
