“You are conducting an experiment to measure the frictional force on a 15 kg block placed on an incline at an angle of 40°. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the incline is 0.25, calculate the frictional force acting on the block. Show all work. In a different experiment, you have a 25 kg block on an incline set at an angle of 50°. The coefficient of friction is 0.3. Determine the frictional force acting on the block. Show all work.”
