“A block with a mass of 12 kg is placed on a 25-degree incline. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the incline is 0.4, calculate the frictional force acting on the block. Show all work. A block weighing 15 N is on a 30-degree incline with a coefficient of friction of 0.5. Determine the net force acting on the block if a force of 20 N is applied parallel to the incline to pull the block up. Show all work.”
