A horizontal force of 200N is required to cause a 15kg block to slide up a 20 degrees incline with an acceleration of 0.25 m/s².Find the friction force on the block
Added by Tichaona M.
Step 1
This force can be calculated using the formula: F_gravity = m * g * sin(θ) where: m = mass of the block = 15 kg g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² θ = angle of the incline = 20 degrees So, F_gravity = 15 kg * 9.8 m/s² * sin(20 degrees) = 50.6 N Show more…
