“A 2 kg block is placed on an incline of 20°. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the incline is 0.3. Will the block slide down the incline? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning. A box is on an inclined plane with an angle of 35°. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the plane is 0.6. Will the box slide down the incline? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning.”
