. 120N is the component of GRAVITY parallel to the surface of the hill; the force exerted by the hill itself is perpendicular to the surface and is 160N. 

Answer:

159.72 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the force that the surface of the hill exerts on the sled is equal to the normal reaction.

N = m g cos θ

Given:

m g = 200 N

θ = 37°

N = (200 N) (cos 37°) = 159.72 N

Thus, the surface of the hill exerts 159.72 N force on the sled.
