Find what the tension in the rope

Reference no: EM13710430

Question: A mover has to move a heavy sofa of mass 66.0 kg to the second floor of the house. As he pulls on the rope tied to the sofa, he makes sure that the rope is parallel to the surface of the ramp, which is at 30.0° to the horizontal.

Part A: If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sofa and the ramp is 0.340, and the sofa has an acceleration of 0.900 m/s², find the tension in the rope.

Please show all work and steps to find the tension in the rope.
