A box of mass m = 20.0 kg is pulled up a ramp that is inclined at an angle 0 15.0° angle with respect to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is µk = 0.285, and the rope pulling the box is parallel to the ramp. If the box accelerates up the ramp at a rate of a 2.89 m/s?, calculate the tension Fr in the rope. Use g = 9.81 m/s² for the acceleration due to gravity. FT = 150.95 N

A box, initially at rest, is pushed up a ramp that makes an angle of 15◦ with the horizontal as shown in the diagram.
