A 25 kg box is placed on an inclined plane with an angle of 20°. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the plane is 0.35. Will the box slide down the plane? Show your work. A block is placed on an inclined plane with an angle of 35°. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is 0.6. What is the maximum mass the block can have before it starts to slide down the plane? Show your work.
