“A block is placed on an inclined plane with an angle of 20°. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is 0.3. Will the block slide down the incline? Explain your reasoning. A box is placed on an inclined plane with an angle of 15°. The component of gravity acting parallel to the incline is 50 N, and the force of static friction is 40 N. Will the box slide down the incline? Explain your reasoning.”
