Step 1
Let's consider the following schematic of the block on the inclined ramp.
Here, is the mass of the block, is the acceleration due to gravity, is the inclination angle, is the normal reaction force exerted by the plane on the block and is the static frictional force exerted by the inclined plane on the block.
