Asked by fresno T
A person whose mass is m = 60.5 kg steps on a mechanical bathroom scale placed on an inclined plane that makes the angle α = 31.7° with the horizontal. What is the reading on the scale?
For this question I used the formula FN=mgcostetha= 60.5x9.8xcos31.7 but the answer is wrong.
Please help

Fp = mg*sin31.7 = Force parallel to the
Inclined plane = Scale reading.
Fn = mg*Cos31.7 = Normal = Force perpendicular to the inclined plane.
