A 2-kg mass is sliding down an incline with an unknown angle, as shown. The incline is assumed to be frictionless and is 1.2 m long. The mass starts from rest and is observed to take 2.3 s to reach the bottom. What is the angle of the incline?

What is the largest angle which the incline can have so that the mass does not slide down the incline? Answer in units of degrees. What is the acceleration of the block down the incline if the angle of the incline is 37 degrees? Answer in units of m/s^2.

Two blocks are connected by a massless rope over a massless, frictionless pulley, as shown in the figure. The mass of block 2 is m2 = 10.9 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between block 2 and the incline is μk = 0.200 . The angle θ of the incline is 35.5° . If block 2 is moving up the incline at constant speed, what is the mass m1 of block 1?
