Homework Statement

2.A box is on an incline plane and the box is not moving. What are the forces acting on the box ? What is the resultant force ? (Attached a picture of the box)
Homework Equations
Fg = mg
The Attempt at a Solution
These two questions got me a little bit confused so I'd like to know if I got these right.
1. I would say it is mg, because weight is not mass. ( other options were : 0, 2mg, m(g-a) )
2. C - Fn, Fg, and friction. Quite unsure about the resultant force, but it is probably 0, because the object is not moving ? ( other options were: mg, mg - Fn, 2mg)
