“A block is placed on an incline of 20°. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the incline is 0.25. Will the block slide down the incline? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning. An object is resting on an inclined plane. The angle of the incline is 15°, and the coefficient of static friction between the object and the plane is 0.30. Will the object remain at rest or slide down the incline? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning.”
