A 4.0-kg block slides down a 30-degree incline at a constant speed when a 16 N force is applied acting up and parallel to the incline. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface of the incline?

A $5.0-\mathrm{kg}$ block rests on a $30^{\circ}$ incline. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the incline is $0.20$. How large a horizontal force must push on the block if the block is to be on the verge of sliding $(a)$ up the incline and $(b)$ down the incline?
