Block of mass msits on inclined plane

Reference no: EM13556421

A block of mass Msits on an inclined plane (angle θ). The mass of the block is 3.0kg and the coefficient of static friction isμ_s.

a) When the angle θ=30degrees, and there is noforce applied the block begins to slide down the plane. Findμ_s.
b) If the inclineis raised to θ=60degrees, what is the minimum value of the horizontal force F need to keep the block from sliding?
