A 4 kg block is on a ramp inclined at 20°. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ramp is 0.1. Calculate the force of kinetic friction acting on the block. (Use g = 9.8 m/s²) A 7 kg box slides down a slope at an angle of 45°. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.3, what is the force of kinetic friction acting on the box? (Use g = 9.8 m/s²)
