A 7 kg block rests on an inclined plane angled at 25°. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is 0.4. Will the block slide down the plane? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning. (g = 9.8 m/s²) A block is placed on an inclined plane. The angle of the incline is 30°, and the coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is 0.55. Will the block slide down the plane? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning. (g = 9.8 m/s²)
