A 2 kg block is placed on an inclined plane with an angle of 25°. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.3. Determine the acceleration of the block down the incline. Show all work. A box with a mass of 5 kg is sliding down an inclined plane at a constant speed. The angle of the incline is 20°. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the plane. Show all work.
