Lemur and Chimp find a 200-kg treasure chest filled with gold plated bananas. The chest rests on an incline as illustrated below. The coefficient of friction between the chest and incline is 0.60. The incline makes a 35 degree angle with the horizontal. A cord parallel to the incline prevents the box from moving.

A) What are the possible tensions in the cord?

B) After Lemur cuts the cord, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the treasure chest?

C) What is the speed of the treasure chest after sliding 30 m down the incline?
