“A 20 kg box is placed on an inclined plane that makes an angle of 20° with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the plane is 0.3. Will the box slide down the plane? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning. A 15 kg block is placed on an inclined plane that makes an angle of 35° with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is 0.7. Will the block slide down the plane? Show your calculations and explain your reasoning.”
