A 26.0 kg box of textbooks rests on a loading ramp that makes an angle α with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40, and the coefficient of static friction is 0.50.

(a) As the angle α is increased, find the minimum angle at which the box starts to slip.

(b) At this angle, find the acceleration once the box has begun to move.

(c) At this angle, how fast will the box be moving after it has slid 4.0 m along the inclined plane?

The truck loading ramp must be sloping and rough. The tilt cannot be very pronounced so that the effort when loading materials and boxes is reduced, and so that accelerate too much when lowering them. It has to be rough so that the worker's shoes have traction on the ramp surface. Imagine that the inclination is 20 ° and that the Static and kinetic coefficients of friction are 0.40 and 0.30, respectively. A worker wants move a 45 kg box...
