One way to determine the coefficients of friction (μs and μk) between two surfaces is to use an incline plane. Consider a block of mass m = 2.0kg initially at rest at the top of the ramp. The angle θ is increased slowly. The object starts to slide down the ramp when θ = 40 . Once the block slides down, the angle is kept constant. The block travels along the ramp by distance d = 2.0 m in time t = 1.5 s. (a) Determine the value of μs (b) Determine the value of μk
